Scores of doctors and healthcare staff at the Telangana Institute of Medical Sciences (TIMS) in Gachibowli here are living under the fear of termination of services, as the COVID-19 cases have come down in the city and elsewhere in the State.
They have reportedly received feelers from the higher authorities that their contract ending by March 31 may not be renewed further.
“Though we are yet to receive official communication, we have been told that we may have to leave after the contract expires at the end of the financial year,” shared a doctor from TIMS on the condition of anonymity.
