Chennai:08.11.2019

A doctors’ association has approached the Madras high court to implement a fixed eight hour duty shift system for post graduate medical students in government medical college hospitals, instead of the current 24-hour duty shift.

Moving the plea as a PIL, Dr GR Ravindranath, general secretary of Doctors Association for Social Equality (DASE) said that even though the state government had issued a notification in 2015 to regularise duty time of PG students and UG CRRI (Compulsory Rotatory Residential Internship) candidates, the same is yet to be implemented.
