New Delhi, Aug 29 : Union Health Minister Anbumani Ramadoss on Wednesday assured students of the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) that their grievances would be dealt with immediately.
Doctors at the AIIMS are on strike since Tuesday evening, protesting against the delay in award of their degrees for the past three years.
Ramadoss said the issue would soon be resolved and appealed doctors to return to work.
"We have asked the director of AIIMS, doctor Venugopal to take immediate cognisance of it and to rectify the issue and put out the certificates, and also to convene the convocation immediately," said Ramadoss.
The strike has crippled medical services at the hospital with scores of patients waiting outside the hospital without any attendance.
"Everything will be for the patient care, welfare and the patients' help. Hospital function (convocation) will be normal, 25th of September," AIIMS Director P. Venugopal said.
Doctors said those who have qualified various medical courses were facing difficulty in seeking jobs or pursuing higher studies in the absence of their degrees.
