Emergency services resumed at most of the hospitals, including AIIMS, RML Hospital and Delhi government-run facilities around yesterday midnight after the Union Health Minister Harsh Vardhan appealed to resident doctors to resume work. 

Doctors from several associations went on with their strike and withdrew all services in protest against the National Medical Commission Bill. They have been expressing reservations over certain provisions of the Bill and alleged that these were "anti-poor, anti-student and undemocratic". 

The



protesting doctors, however, will continue to withdraw non-essential services, including in out-patient department (OPD). The decisions were taken at meetings of resident doctor associations that went on till late night.

The resident doctors' associations of AIIMS, Safdarjung Hospital, RML Hospital and those attached with the Federation of Resident Doctors Association (FORDA) and United Resident Doctors' Association (URDA) had boycotted work including that at the emergency department and held demonstrations on Thursday over the issue.
