GMOA to strike on April 26

we23The powerful trade union of the state health sector, Government Medical Officers' Association (GMOA) has announced that the doctors of the government hospitals would launch a strike next week. The union is demanding the government to implement the promotion scheme of the government medical officers who have completed 10 years of service.
Media spokesman of the GMOA Dr. Naveen de Soyza said the doctors have been applying for the promotions for the last 18 months without any tangible results. GMOA has given time to the Ministry of Health to resolve the issue before April 23 to avoid the intended trade union action.
