Lucknow: At least a
dozen Unani and Ayurvedic doctors were injured in clashes with the
police here after hundreds of medics, including women, tried to
stage protest in front of Uttar Pradesh assembly demanding better
pay.
The doctors were agitating for removal of alleged pay scale
discrepancies and for making their jobs permanent.
As they moved towards the Vidhan Sabha building, the police put up
barricades and tried to stop them, leading to a clash between them
and the doctors.
Many doctors were hurt in the clash and about a dozen with
injuries were admitted to nearby facilities, police said.
The doctors demanded that a senior official from the government
meet them and address their problems. They were chased by baton
wielding police when they tried to move towards the Vidhan Sabha.
