SC asks hospitals to regularise doctors' absence during their RG Kar protests

New Indian Express  

The Supreme Court on Wednesday directed hospitals to ensure regularising the unauthorised absence of those doctors who were part of the protests against the rape and murder of a doctor at RG Kar Hospital, Kolkata and demanding Justice for the victim and her family members. One of the doctors’ body on Wednesday submitted to the apex court that some hospitals had regularised the absence of the doctors following its August 22, 2024 order but a few others, including the AIIMS Delhi, decided to treat the period as leave of absence. After hearing this, the CJI took note of the doctor's body's submissions and made it clear that if protesting workers had joined work after the Supreme Court's order then their absence would be regularised. "We deem it appropriate to clarify that if protesting workers had joined work post the Supreme Court order then their absence shall be regularised and not be treated as absence from duty.
