In this regard, Young Doctors Association (YDA) Punjab President Dr. Shoaib Niazi said that the government has not accepted any of our demands, on which the OPDs of hospitals across Punjab will remain closed tomorrow.

Dr. Shoaib Niazi demanded that the Doctors’ Security Bill should be implemented on the incidents of violence against doctors in DHQ Sargodha and Children’s Hospital Lahore in a few days.

Furthermore, President YDA Punjab demanded that an ad hoc and unfair system of recruitment of doctors on a local basis should be abolished.

He demanded that the government should fulfill its promises immediately to increase the salaries of doctors. He further demanded that reprisals against doctors should be stopped.
