The State government on Tuesday informed the Bombay High Court that it has taken several steps to provide security to doctors and their relatives.
Acting advocate general Rohit Deo told a division Bench of Justice Abhay Oka and Justice A.A. Sayed that additional policemen have been deployed at hospitals.
He said that the CCTV cameras at hospitals would be connected to the nearest police station so that the policemen can monitor the situation and take steps in case of emergency. Mr. Deo said that this matter was currently being heard by the Nagpur Bench of the High Court.
He also said that a meeting of the commission, appointed to look into the grievances of the members of the Maharashtra Association of Resident Doctors, had been held recently. Another meeting has been fixed on July 4.
