Statement by Intern Doctors of J&K
If their demand for a stipend hike is not fulfilled within the assured timeline they will be left with no option but to begin an indefinite hunger strike from October 10
We remain hopeful that the government will honour its commitment

Heights of Incompetency
1. MBBS interns are on strike for a fair stipend.
2. Youth are protesting against job outsourcing.
3. Daily wagers are demanding implementation of minimum wages and payment of pending dues.
4. Safai Karamcharis are protesting for regularisation and basic service-related rights.
These are not political slogans. These are ordinary people protesting for their basic livelihood and employment rights.
So, can the Abdullah government name even ONE group of people that is genuinely satisfied with its governance?
Instead of answering these questions, don't divert the discussion with idhar-udhar ki baatein.

Standing firmly with the Intern Doctors of GMC Srinagar in their demand for a ₹30,000 monthly stipend.
₹12,300 for doctors working long hours across wards, emergencies, OTs and ICUs is simply inadequate. Their demand is about dignity, fairness and recognition.
I urge Hon’ble LG Manoj Sinha Ji @manojsinha_ and Hon’ble CM Omar Abdullah Ji @OmarAbdullah to kindly consider their genuine demand and ensure an early resolution.

Strongly support the genuine demand of interns for a stipend hike
Internship involves long hour duties, heavy responsibilities, and patient care. A fair and dignified stipend is not a privilege,it is recognition of their work and contribution
IMA JDN J&K stands with our interns
Despite repeated appeals no action has been taken by the Govt regarding intern stipend. Medical interns of J&K will suspend all clinical duties effective August 31 until concrete action is taken. We stand united for fair policies & basic rights.
@OmarAbdullah@sakinaitoo
We have waited,submitted representations & approached the authorities.If our legitimate demands continue to be ignored,we will take to the streets.
31 AUGUST — PROTEST ACROSS J&K
This is about justice,dignity & recognition of our work.
Resolve it before 31 August. @OmarAbdullah
IMA-MSN J&K seeks immediate and equitable revision of MBBS internship stipend from ₹12300 to ₹30,000/month, commensurate with interns clinical responsibilities, workload & prevailing standards.
We urge Hon’ble CM @OmarAbdullah to intervene and ensure expeditious consideration.
₹12,300 per month is not support. It is an insult to the years of hard work,sleepless nights,and responsibility.Revise the stipend to at least ₹25,000 per month,ensure timely disbursement,and bring J&K at par with the national average

The stipend enhancement file has been pending for final approval since 2023, when the government committee recommended 25K.I call upon prominent youth leaders to highlight this matter and press for the long-pending enhancement in J&K.
