Tamil Nadu Doctors Seek WHO Intervention on Staffing and Pay

Tamil Nadu Doctors Seek WHO Intervention on Staffing and Pay

Doctors in Tamil Nadu are asking the World Health Organization (WHO) for help.

They want the government to fix two problems.

First, there aren't enough doctors working in hospitals.

This means the doctors who are working have too much to do.

Second, the doctors are paid less than doctors in other states.

The doctors say that despite their good work, they are not getting enough pay.

They are also concerned about their health, as the average life expectancy of doctors is low.

The doctors want the WHO to tell the government to hire more doctors and pay them fairly.
