Sad news.!! i condemn the strike which caused the death of innocent patients..
Doctors main job is to serve the society and save people, but if they dont fulfil that job then what is the use of them.
yes i agree with what raja and sajeetharan has said. doctor main duty is to serve people and the community.
Doctors forget the oath taken by them that service is their main motto. :(
I saw the news now strike has come to an end. all are back to work after 2 days
Oh God!! When was this strike started?? This is very sad news..

This is very bad on the part of doctors. They should not leave the emergency cases to air!!!!!
These days strike seems to be the weapon which breaking down all class barriers! Its appeal is luring all kind of people- be they doctors or Mozdoor!!
They are not doctors but Heartless movable objects without any emotions!! :( :(
How about calling them as "licensed killers"!!!
it is very useful and very sad news but thanks for share.................
Yes!
We can call them:

Licensed Killers
Licensed Murders
Heartless Humans
Villains in Doctors' Uniform
....
....
etc
That's a good list,Kumaresh! I would add the last one as "unlicensed fleecers"!!!
Yes!!
thanks for adding one more adjective for them!!

So much senseless they are!!
They are Cruelty's residence!!
Yes i agree with kumaresh and chinmoy...Strikes in this profession is really risky for patients life. I know the pain of these strike which killed one of my loved one.. :angry:
Yes --- Many different Titles for these criminals.. :)

I would like to give one more.......
Educated Killers...
I think that doctors should never go on strike.Medical profession is a very noble profession and this act doesnt go well with it.Besides if doctors go on strike then they will make common men as their enemies.
Thats true Sajeetharan..... Helping nature should be as a main motive for doctors.. Instead, they are not performing their duty well... Disgusting.... :(
Sadly enough it's no longer a noble profession thanks to the shady activities of some butchers who present themselves in the garb of doctors!
