PHAGWARA: Doctors and para-medical staff of the civil hospital here went on a strike on Saturday after one of their colleagues was assaulted by family members of a teenager who succumbed to his injures after being hit by a train, police said.
Following their strike which lasted around eight hours, doctors of civil hospitals in neighbouring areas, including Bholath, Sultanpur Lodhi and Kapurthala, also suspended their work for sometime in solidarity with their colleagues in Phagwara, officials said.
