Doctors Across Nepal Wear Black Armbands in Protest Against The Consumer Court Verdict

Health workers and doctors in Nepal have put on black armbands over a court order that fined hospitals and doctors over alleged negligence. The Nepal Medical Council points out that such cases should not be looked into by the Consumer Court but should be the task of the Nepal Medical Council, and the ruling can prove to be a detriment to the health sector. The task force has been established to advocate for changes in law, and they may protest again if their issues are not addressed.
