PUL-I-KHUMRI (Pajhwok): Tens of doctors and paramedical staff members of the civilian hospital in northern Baghlan province on Saturday protested against a possible decrease in their salaries.
They gathered in the hospital yard and shut doors of the hospital and told media people that they would not work if their salaries were decreased.
Dr. Ahmad Shakib, one of the protesters, said medical staff worked harder than the rest of government employees but instead of supporting them their salary had been reduced to 9,000 afs from 20,000afs in the new budget draft.
Dr. Niaz Mohammad Akakhel said . . .
