What happened to the woman doctor in Kolkata’s RG hospital is very horrific. Our hearts are filled with sorrow on hearing this. The demon who did all this to the god of the earth, the doctor, must be punished. Your anger is very justified. After all, you must be protected. There should be such arrangements that in future no one should dare to even dare to defy a doctor. But I request you, Doctor Sahib. Do not prolong the strike. I have heard that in the coming days you people are going to intensify your agitation. We poor people are with you. We have nothing else. This body is just a gift from nature. If we remain healthy, we will earn our daily bread. We will be able to feed our children. We have only hope from you. If you just look after us, we will be fine. We will become capable of earning our daily bread.
Poor patients’ prospects
I request you to postpone the strike. Rukhsana is lying on the footpath in AIIMS. She belongs to a family that earns daily and eats daily. Because of you people, she is undergoing kidney treatment for the last 8 years. Her kidney has failed. She is still alive on dialysis. She is dependent only on your government hospital. She cannot even think of going to a private hospital. She is in a lot of pain. The guard bhaiya told her that you people are on strike. Because of this, nothing can be done. Do something!
Mahto ji (surname changed) of Jharkhand did not reveal his name. He does not want to introduce himself to the media. He did not even get his photo taken. He cannot see his flower-like one and a half year old daughter. She is a cute little girl, it seems her flower-like daughter’s name will be Phoolwa. He did not tell that either. He got himself examined in Ranchi on his own. Different doctors gave different opinions. Now he came to AIIMS with a lot of hope. Here he is not able to understand anything.

It is not possible to come back again
Dinesh Saluja of Gwalior has gangrene in his feet. After much worry, he came to know that he can get rid of the gangrene by cutting it properly in AIIMS only. He got time after standing in a long queue. It was not easy for Dinesh, who came from an ordinary family, to reach AIIMS in his sick condition. Somehow he was able to reach there but the guard bhaiya gave him the same answer as Rukhsana. Now it is not in his power to come to AIIMS again.
The girl has a hole in her heart
A family from Bareilly looks distraught. Their two-month-old daughter has a hole in her heart. Both clean and dirty blood are mixing. Doctors in Bareilly have said that only AIIMS can help with this disease. They have been asked to come here on the 16th. Due to the strike of junior doctors, they may not have got any relief even today.
AIIMS has become famous because of you. I have seen you people working many times. I have seen that you people work 16 hours out of 24 to cure others without caring about time. You do not differentiate between the rich and the poor. It seems that service is your only aim. I feel great respect after seeing so many doctors like you.
If the strike continues, the problems of patients will increase further.
This is not just about AIIMS. I have just given the example of AIIMS. Poor people get many facilities in most government hospitals. Barring some isolated incidents, people with low incomes and those without medical insurance are able to get themselves and their family members treated only because of you people.

Till now only junior and resident doctors were on strike. Now it is heard that Indian Medical Council, the biggest organization of doctors, has also talked about going on strike. If IMA goes on strike, no one will be able to get treatment. After all, doctors working in private hospitals are also its members. The total number of members of IMA is more than three and a half lakh. There will be chaos. If all the doctors go on strike, there will be chaos. Think once again. Find some other way of agitation. We poor people pray with folded hands. We are all with you. We have no fault, but we will be punished. After all, only you can cure this body made by nature. Neither any IAS nor any minister can cure it. Whatever is wrong with this body, only you have the cure to cure it.
