AIIMS Doctors Protest for Rotatory Headship in Delhi
Doctors from two big hospitals, AIIMS Delhi and PGIMER Chandigarh, want a new rule called 'rotatory headship.'
This means that the leaders of the hospital departments would take turns being in charge, instead of the same people always being in charge.
The doctors marched to show they want this change, but the police stopped them from going to Parliament.
Around 50 doctors participated, and they later talked to the hospital directors about what to do next.
The doctors also held up signs saying they wanted fairness.
