MLA-doctors row continues

Warrangal, June 29: The standoff between Warangal East MLA Baswaraju Saraiah and the junior doctors has led to inconvenience to the patients at MGM Hospital here.

The junior doctors have boycotted duties Sunday insisting that cases be registered against the MLA and the Mattewada SI for being rude towards them.

One of the MLA’s followers was admitted to the hospital last night after being injured in an accident. On information that the junior doctors on duty did not take proper care of the patient, the legislator himself descended on the hospital.

However, he was irked when a junior doctor spoke `harshly’ to him even after introducing himself as the MLA. This led to an argument between the MLA and the doctor.

Soon the MLA called up the Mattewada SI who rushed to the place. And the doctors had an altercation with the police also for entering the hospital without permission.

The police booked the junior doctor who had an argument with the MLA in Mattewada police station.
