THE GOVERNMENT INVOKED ESMA AFTER THE OMSA REJECTED AN APPEAL BY HEALTH AND FAMILY WELFARE MINISTER MUKESH MAHALING TO RESUME DUTIES, WITH AN ASSURANCE THAT THE DEMANDS WOULD BE CONSIDERED SYMPATHETICALLY
The state government Tuesday invoked Essential Services Maintenance Act (ESMA), 1988, prohibiting strikes by doctors and other healthcare staffers, as agitating doctors carried on with their boycott of outpatient department (OPD) services across state-run health facilities.
Under the order, strikes in the form of cessation of work by doctors, nursing officers, pharmacists, paramedics, technicians and Class III and IV employees, including contractual staff, engaged in government hospitals and dispensaries have been banned for six months with effect from Tuesday, an official notification said.
