Summary:
AIIMS resident doctors have threatened to stop work if the administration does not act on rising cases of theft on the campus, saying patient care cannot be delivered in an unsafe and uncooperative environment. The attitude of the AIIMS security has been “extremely callous” in this regard while the behaviour of the Chief Security Officer and AIIMS police chowki in-charge has been “uncooperative”, they alleged. “Residents of AIIMS are extremely distressed by these recurrent thefts and unprofessional behaviour of the chowki in-charge. In case of non-fulfilment of these demands, the RDA and AIIMS residents will consider stopping work as patient care cannot be delivered in an unsafe and non-cooperative environment,” the letter stated. Residents are made to run from pillar to post for registering complaints,” the RDA said in the letter..
