Tension prevailed at Indo American Cancer Hospital on Monday when its non-medical staff, dissatisfied with the yearly increments, held a protest on the hospital premises demanding a revision. They sat on a dharna in front of the hospital CEO R P Singh's room and gheraoed the HR manager in the afternoon.
While the hospital doctors and nursing staff were on duty, the agitated slogan shouting staffers disturbed the hospital atmosphere causing inconvenience to the patients. As a precautionary measure, police was called in.
The agitating staffers demanded a written assurance from the management for revision of increments with immediate effect. However, the management could not do so and assured them that the issue will be sorted out by the end of the month as the chairman of the hospital, N T Balakrishna, was not in town. Till late in the night, the employees of this super-specialty hospital for oncology, continued with their protest as talks failed.
