It is reported by TOI that there were a few private hospitals in Delhi and NCR region, where the private hospital resident doctors started demnding the Pay hike from the hospital management, given the fact that their counterparts (doctors) in the government jobs were earning as much as 30% to 40% more salary than these private resident doctors. All this is courtesy to the Sixth Pay Commission Recommendations, where there are cases where the government sector employee salary has gone way up compared that his/her counterpart in the private sector. Wikipedia on Sixth Pay Commission News
As per the news, The problem at the private hospitals started when one of the hospital management of Max Healthcare hospitals in Saket and one in Patparganj declined to hike the salaries of the doctors. Following that, the private doctors went on strike demanding a hike in salary. The resident doctors in private hospitals are unhappy as their counterparts in government hospitals are getting nearly 30-40% more than them after the sixth Pay Commission. Joining the Max protest were doctors from Batra hospital, who wore black badges as a mark of protest and have given the management two days time to decide.
The story appears to be the same at other leading hospitals as well - Indraprastha Apollo, Batra Hospital are a few of them.
What are the current salaries of doctors?
A senior resident in government hospital gets somewhere between Rs 55,000 to Rs 58,000, but Private hospital doctors get just Rs 38000-Rs 40,000. The junior residents are even more poorly paid.
