The Odisha government has taken a strict stance against the ongoing doctors' strike, ordering the stoppage of salaries for OMHS cadre doctors and termination notices for contractual doctors. While the government emphasized that many demands like DACP and cadre restructuring have already been met, the current strike is severely affecting healthcare services across the state. The Health Department has urged doctors to return to duty and engage in constructive discussions, prioritizing patient welfare under the principle of 'Service is the supreme duty'. https://sambad.in/state/odisha-government-urges-protesting-doctors-to-resume-duty-invites-dialogue-12128422 #creator program
