A government official said more than 1,300 staffers were removed from service as they did not resume work despite repeated notices.
The Gujarat government has sacked over 1,300 healthcare workers across the state as their indefinite strike to seek better salary continued on Thursday.
Maintenance Act against the healthcare staffers posted across the state to demand better pay scales, inclusion in technical cadres, and the cancellation of departmental examinations.
A government official said about 11,000 healthcare workers participated in the strike and were issued show-cause notices. “More than 1,300 have been removed from service as they did not resume work despite repeated notices,” the official said, adding that only 5,000 workers were still on strike,
“The government is considering all possible options to reach an amicable solution,” the official added.
Health minister Rushikesh Patel told reporters that the government will hold talks to find a solution only after the strike is called off. “Not before that,” he said.
