Thane: Resident doctors from Rajiv Gandhi Medical College (RGMC) in Thane have expressed heartfelt gratitude to Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, Deputy Chief Ministers Eknath Shinde and Ajit Pawar, and Public Health Minister Prakash Abitkar for resolving a long-pending salary issue affecting in-service medical officers.
The RGMC MARD (Maharashtra Association of Resident Doctors) said that after their representatives met Chief Minister Fadnavis just 15 days ago, the state government promptly issued a Government Resolution (GR) addressing the problem. The GR pertains to the payments of in-service medical officers who secured admission through the NEET-PG 2024 quota and had not received their salaries for the past seven months.
