The Pakistan Medical Association (PMA) has announced to end its strike in Balochistan.
According to PMA Balochistan President Sultan Tareen, doctors will return to duty and OPDs of government hospitals will be opened on Friday. Meanwhile Provincial Health Secretary said cases against the doctors would be withdrawn.
The strike which lasted for 58 days was started when Dr. Saeed Khan was kidnapped by armed men. Dr. Saeed was later released after payment of ransom. The doctors’ province-wide strike was started from October 16, causing severe difficulties to patients.
