Fazilka, December 27
Members of the Fazilka Medical Practitioners’ Association took out a protest march in the town and burnt an effigy of the government in favour of their demand. They have been demanding permission to practice, particularly in rural areas.
Association district president Raj Krishan Josan said they had been serving and treating most of the rural population of the state since long but had not been given the right to practice. They said over 65 per cent of the state population resides in rural areas and they had been providing cheap medical facilities to them, that too in absence of adequate government medical facilities. — OC
