The Government Medical Officers’ Association states that if the government does not take immediate action against the injustice done to doctors by cutting their allowances which are exceeding the salary amount, they will take trade union action in the future.
Union’s Central Committee Member Dr. Prasad Colombage stated that a doctor has lost more than Rs. 30,000 due to this.
He further stated that due to this injustice some doctors are preparing to leave the health sector and leave the country.
Therefore, the government should take immediate action to rectify this unjust action, said Dr. Prasad Colombage.
