Himachal Pradesh Faces Healthcare Disruptions

In Himachal Pradesh, ambulance workers and doctors are protesting.

Ambulance workers are on a two-day strike because they say they are not being paid enough and are being treated unfairly.

This has stopped ambulance services across the state.

At the same time, many doctors took a day off to protest because one of their colleagues, Dr. Raghav Narula, was fired.

They say he was fired unfairly after an argument with a patient.

Because of the protest, many hospitals had very few doctors, and some patients had to wait a long time or had their surgeries postponed.

The doctors want Dr. Narula to be reinstated and for the hospital to be safer.

The ambulance workers and doctors are both asking the government to fix these problems.
