Dimapur, Nov. 3 (EMN): While considering the plight of suffering public due to the ongoing agitation imposed by the Nagaland In-Service Doctors’ Association (NIDA), the Angami Students’ Union (ASU) has called upon the state government to immediately negotiate and come to an acceptable solution.
“While the state government may be minutely aware of the Union’s earlier representations and statements, the Angami Students’ Union is distressed by the inadequacy of the state government in addressing the issue of medical doctors’ age superannuation. There are certain speculated impediments of which the state government is apparently hesitating to heed to the demands of the state medical doctors and even instigating other forces to defend their unacceptable decisions,” ASU statement read.
The union urged the state government to diligently address the issues by taking extraordinary decisions when it concerns about the fate of many lives such as the health sector.
The union has questioned the state government as to whether the government could shoulder the responsibility of any casualty arising out of the agitation. The union added that it would not remain deaf and dumb when the ignorance of the state government on any pertinent issue is left unattended and its people are made scapegoats of the issue.
The union, therefore, called upon the state government to immediately negotiate an acceptable solution on the genuine demands of the medical doctors. It added that any casualty incited out of the agitation shall carry no pardon as the union is vigilant on the situation and would tolerate no jeopardy towards its people.
The union further urged state government to take serious approach to the demands of medical doctors.
