Friday, May 17, 2002“Security concerns for doctors surfaced after individuals posing as patients stabbed and injured a Hindu doctor last month in his clinic in a Muslim neighbourhood. The incident prompted the Ahmedabad Doctors' Forum to urge Hindu doctors not to venture into Muslim localities unless their safety was guaranteed.” The consequences are that doctors of both faiths are avoiding the Muslim areas: “Hindu doctors have stopped visiting hospitals in Muslim localities. At the Al Amin Hospital, for example, 70 out of 82 consultants are Hindus. "All but two have stayed away from the hospital for several weeks," Dr Sadiq Kazi, medical superintendent at Al Amin told the BMJ. Its Muslim consultants have also stopped visiting because of safety concerns about travelling around the city.” Behave badly, and you will be treated badly. posted by Sydney on 5/17/2002 07:53:00 AM 0 comments 0 Comments: |
