The Legal Coordination Committee for Government Doctors has planned to stage a “fast unto death” on June 29 demanding a review of Government Order 354.

According to a press release, as per the G.O., Pay Band 4 should be granted to government doctors who complete 12 years of service. The government doctors were disappointed that their demands remain unfulfilled despite many representations to the government and even after one year since the DMK came to power.

The committee said the government doctors were not demanding a new pay hike but seeking only implementation of a G.O. They hoped that the Chief Minister would immediately order implementation of the G.O.
