As a society, we have to think about the atrocities being committed against our mothers, daughters and sisters. There is outrage against this in the country. I can feel this outrage.
From every part of the country, we are seeing that doctors are overwhelmingly protesting and withholding their services.
This decision is not made lightly but is necessary to ensure that our voices are heard.
I was the lone doctor in the ICU when three men, flaunting a politician's name, forced their way in, demanding a much in-demand controlled drug. I gave in to protect myself, knowing the safety of my patients was at stake.
