Hyderabad Medical Interns Protest Stipend Issues, Face Threats

Imagine you're a doctor-in-training and you're working at a hospital.

You're supposed to get paid a certain amount, like a salary.

But, in Hyderabad, some private colleges aren't paying their medical interns, or they're paying much less than they should.

The students are upset because they are doing a lot of work.

When they protest, the college tells them they might have to stay longer to finish their training.

The interns are supposed to get paid a fair amount, similar to what interns at government hospitals receive.

The colleges are also keeping their money that they were supposed to return after finishing their degrees.
