Doctors across the country have suspended all medical services except emergency care starting today. The move comes in response to recent rulings by the consumer court that have held doctors and hospitals accountable for alleged negligence and ordered them to pay compensation.
Medical professionals have expressed dissatisfaction over what they see as unfair judgments that could set a concerning precedent for the healthcare sector. They argue that the rulings ignore the complexities and risks inherent in medical treatment.
Hospitals and medical associations have urged the government to intervene and address the growing concerns among doctors regarding legal and professional security.
