NEET PG 2023: FAIMA seeks DCP's permission for peaceful protest at Jantar Mantar

FAIMA has written to the Deputy Commission Police for seeking permission regarding a peaceful protest by NEET PG 2023 aspirants at the Jantar Mantar. The doctors' association was trying to meet Union Health Minister Mansukh Mandaviya for a few days, and after they failed to meet him, they are intensifying their protest for NEET PG 2023 postponement.

In the letter to DCP, FAIMA has written, "We tried our level best to communicate to Hon'ble Health Minister Shri Mansukh Mandaviya Ji regarding our concerns. We requested through official routes. But we were not given any support from Health Minister Shri Mansukh Mandaviya Ji which forced us to come to this step after this. We doctors on behalf of FAIMA want to peacefully protest on Jantar Mantar in around 100 numbers."

"We assure you our protest would be apolitical and peaceful. We want to show our idea in front of Hon'ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji, we have left with no other option except protesting peacefully. We don't want public to suffer in this demand," added the letter.
