These strikes wreak havoc on the poor people of Pakistan. No, doubt these strikes are wicked notions. These tactics show, the doctors are trying to gain advantages due to the helplessness of others just to get their demands fulfilled and this is by no means ethical.

Generally employees are paid lesser in government jobs but that is not a case with doctors. Doctors already get a better pay when compared with the other government servants having similar duration of experience. Who gets paid more than Rs 55,000 at start in a government job except a doctor? If someone is not satisfied with government job then he must not rush towards government jobs but it is unjustifiable to tease impecunious people.

About duty hours i would say, many of the policemen have even worse duty hours but they get paid meagre salaries with many life threats. No doubt doctors work hard during their studies but that goes right with engineers, pharmacists, chartered accountants and many other professionals who get their degrees with their sedulous efforts. It is pertinent to mention here that huge sums of money are spent by the state on the education of doctors and they owe it to the state and to the poverty-stricken people of this land.

PS- better service structure is the right of every employee of the state.

PPS- Big appology to the starter of this thread for annihilating the soul of this thread. Sir, on the issue of doctors, i won't be commenting on this thread anymore.
