Srinagar, Mar 30: Doctors Association Kashmir (DAK) today in a statement appealed administration to restore administrative seniority and implement transfer policy without any further delay.
President, DAK, Dr Suhail Naik said that we have time and again demanded the restoration of administrative seniority in the health department and most senior doctors should be elated to various administrative posts guided by recruitment rules.
“In rural health care delivery system, it has been observed that it is very much difficult for senior doctors to work under administrative officers who are junior to them. This selective approach and favouritism is the main reason for unworthy work culture,” he said.
General secretary DAK, Dr Owais H Dar said that “restoration of administrative seniority is very much imperative to improve effectiveness and grace of medical profession and it is high time to done away with the in-charge system.
DAK further stated that as the routine transfers are in offing in April as per the latest GAD order, it is an appropriate time to implement transfer policy in letter and spirit.
