Dhaka,
Sep 04 (UNB)- Members of the Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) have been deployed
at Chittagong Medical College Hospital for security of doctors and other
employees.
This information was
confirmed by BGB's public relations officer, Md. Shariful Islam at BGB
headquarters this morning.
The deployment comes
after doctors demanded security at work places.
Earlier, doctors across
the country had called for a "complete shutdown" to demand justice
for the assault and vandalism against medical professionals at the emergency
department of Dhaka Medical College Hospital.
Expressing solidarity
the doctors at CMCH, the only specialized hospital in greater Chottogram, also went
on strike, resulting in a suspension of all hospital services. However, the
strike was later called off, and the doctors resumed their duties.
