timesofindia.indiatimes.com

The Kerala Government Medical Officers Association (KGMOA) plans to protest on Tuesday against the director of health services (DHS) for actions disrupting the health department's operations. They claim the DHS imposes unfair penalties on doctors while neglecting service-related issues. KGMOA leaders highlighted a severe shortage of staff, with around 500 vacant positions. They stated that their suggestions to address these issues have been ignored, and many service-related files remain unresolved for months. The association criticized the DHS for retaliatory disciplinary actions against doctors, including penalties for participating in protests. They are demanding the withdrawal of these actions, resolution of service issues, timely transfers, and filling of vacant positions.
