Doctors' body calls for shutdown of healthcare institutions; police registers FIR as stir intensifies

Protest by a large number of resident doctors in Delhi over the delay in NEET-PG 2021 counselling on Monday took a dramatic turn, as medics and police personnel faced off in the streets, with both sides claiming several persons suffered an injury in the ensuing melee. The stir, led by the Federation of Resident Doctors' Association, has been going on for several days, and FORDA also said that several of its members were "detained" when they tried to hold a protest march from Maulana Azad Medical College (MAMC) to Supreme Court.
