Health services at the BRD medical college were hit Monday as junior doctors went on an indefinite strike after 13 of their colleagues were booked for allegedly beating up a man. A local resident, Shiv Kumar, had accused some junior doctors of beating him up on September 10.

Junior doctors took strong exception to an FIR registered against 13 of their colleagues and proceeded on a strike. They shouted slogans outside the office of Principal Ganesh Kumar, demanding the charge of 'attempt to murder' against their colleagues be dropped.
