The Punjab Young Doctors Association (YDA) vowed to continue its efforts to get all 137 remaining sacked house officers of Punjab hospitals reinstated.
YDA Media Coordinator Dr Khurum Shehzad said that it was a good step taken by the Health department which led to the reinstatement of 62 HOs of Lahore General Hospital (LGH) in the last week. However, he added that the YDA would continue its struggle to get all the sacked HOs reinstated.
The Health department sacked 199 HOs including 62 from the LGH, 20 from the Children’s Hospital Lahore and 18 from the Punjab Institute of Cardiology (PIC).
After negotiations between the Health department and the YDA, 62
HOs of the LGH were reinstated last week.
