NCP member Supriya Sule today raised in the Lok Sabha the recent incident of thrashing of a doctor in Maharashtra and demanded the Centre's intervention for protection of the medicos in the state.
Sule said doctor Rohan Mamorkar, who was assaulted in Dhule's civil hospital by angry relatives of a patient earlier this month, has almost lost vision of one eye, has a fractured skull and is now battling for life.
This is one of the reasons for doctors in Maharashtra going on strike, which received support from medical fraternity across the country.
"I urge the Health Minister (J P Nadda) to talk to chief ministers of all the states and ensure their security," Sule said.
