A Division Bench of Justices K. K. Sasidharan and P. D. Audikesavalu directed the State to convene a meeting of Health and Family Welfare department and the Tamil Nadu Government Doctors’ Association to resolve the issues of pay parity and time-bound promotions. The court sought an action taken report on the meeting on February 18.
The State had informed the court that it was looking into the recommendations of the working committee that had earlier convened a meeting to discuss the demands of State government doctors.
They have demanded pay parity with Central government doctors and other State doctors. The doctors also demanded that the process for time-bound promotions for doctors be expedited.
The court was hearing a public interest litigation petition filed by S. Mohamed Yunnis Raja of Madurai, who sought a direction to restrain the TNGDA from going ahead with its strike.
