The Intern Doctors' Union in Lucknow's King George Medical University has said that the daily remuneration they receive is not enough for them. They are alleging that the government has so far neglected their issues, even as they continue to serve during the COVID-19 pandemic. One of the doctors said that with the remuneration provided, they cannot even afford an N95 mask. They demand that they be paid respectable salaries, not Taali-thali-pushp varsha (claps-banging of plates-flower shower to show appreciation of work).
