Doctors are people who help sick people get better.

At a government hospital in a town called Jogipet, some doctors are in big trouble.

They were supposed to be at the hospital doing their own jobs.

But it looks like they let other doctors, called private doctors, do their work for them instead.

The people in charge of the hospital found out about this and were not happy.

Because of this, two more doctors were told they could not come to work anymore.

That is called being suspended.

Before this, another doctor had already been suspended for the same reason.

The Health Minister of Telangana said he is very sad and upset about what happened.

The police are also looking into the case, and the private doctors who were found working there might get in trouble too.
