Dimapur, Mar. 6 (EMN): The Nagaland In-Service Doctors’ Association (NIDA) has expressed displeasure in which the mob had vandalised the Primary Health Centre (PHC) in Akuluto and the Community Health Centre (CHC) in Jalukie besides causing physical and mental harassment to the doctors and staff in CHC Jalukie.
In a joint press release, NIDA vice president, Dr. MC Longai, and the general secretary, Dr. Imotemsu, stated that the department has been receiving similar mistreatments in recent time which cannot be termed as justice by any sane person.
Stating that as doctors or medical staff, they have been treating patients with their best abilities despite of so many constraints, NIDA said they expects due regards instead of harassment.
The association has condemned the barbaric action committed to the health centres and the medical staff and demanded appropriate action against the perpetrators at the earliest.
Also stating that any complain against its members should be addressed to the concerned authority instead of committing such high handedness, NIDA has urged upon the concerned district administration and the police to nab the culprits at the earliest and take appropriate action so that such incidence do not reoccur against any government servants in future.
