New Delhi, Jun 10 (IANS): The Resident Doctors' Association of Delhi's Kasturba Hospital on Wednesday threatened to tender their mass resignations by June 16, due to non-payment of their salaries for the past three months.

"This is to inform that the Resident doctors have not been salaried for the last three months. No, work, no pay. We are afraid that if we will not be paid by June 16, we will have to move for mass resignations," said a letter sent to the Additional Medical Superintendent of the Hospital situated near Jama Masjid.

The association further said that the doctors, besides putting their lives at risk due to the Covid-19 pandemic, are unable to pay their rents, travelling expenses and are unable to buy essential commodities due to non-disbursal of salaries since March.

Seeking salaries "as soon as possible", the letter, undersigned by Association's General Secretary Dr. Ratnesh Kumar Singh, further demanded assurance that regular salary payments will be then on.

"We hope the concerned authorities will take immediate action and take out notice on priority to resolve our issue within time," it added.

The 450-bedded Kasturba Hospital falls under the ambit of the North Municipal Corporation of Delhi.
