The Government
Medical Officers Association (GMOA) has decided to call a 24-hour token strike
at all provincial council hospitals belonging to the Polonnaruwa District
tomorrow (August 22).
The strike will begin
at 8am tomorrow, the Polonnaruwa District Secretary Dr. Sanjeewa Amarasinghe
stated.
The strike action
will be called in demand for action to be taken against the misconduct of an Administrative
PHI belonging to the Higurakgoda Health Inspector region.
The PHI in question
was attached to the Anuradhapura Health Services Director’s Office in view of
the pending investigation on his conduct.
Dr. Amarasinghe
stated that despite the GMOA reporting several cases of misconduct concerning
the said PHI, the Health Ministry has failed to submit any investigation
reports on the matter.
