Honour your doctor, appeals CP to citizens

Nashik: Commissioner of police Vishwas Nangare-Patil has released a video on social media appealing to Nashik residents to honour doctors and medical staff who are working day and night to treat Covid-19 patients.

The video comes on the backdrop of the recent Ambad incident in which a doctor employed with a private hospital was assaulted by three people.



In his video, Nangare-Patil brought to the notice of the citizens that doctors are working day and night without going home for weeks since the last five months and that the Ambad incident was very unfortunate.

He said that the suspects in the Ambad case have been booked under various sections of the Medicare Service Persons And Medicare Service Institutions (Prevention Of Violence And Damage To Property) Act, Epidemic Amendment Act, as well as various sections of the Indian Penal Code which are cognizable and non-bailable.

The CP said that the relation between a doctor and a patient is more about trust which should not be broken in any case. “In these trying times of coronavirus, it is all the more important to nurture this bond of trust,” he said.
