Resident doctors across Maharashtra, India, have raised serious concerns about their working conditions in government medical colleges, highlighting a crisis marked by excessive working hours, harassment, and inadequate infrastructure. In a letter to the Medical Education and Drugs Department, the Maharashtra Senior Resident Doctor Association (MSRDA) reported that many doctors endure shifts lasting up to 56 hours, leading to significant mental strain. Approximately 65% of resident doctors experience mental harassment, often stemming from coercive practices by some Heads of Department regarding thesis completion. Allegations include threats related to necessary signatures for graduation and demands for personal favors, such as running personal errands. The overcrowded hospitals and inadequate living conditions exacerbate the situation, with many residents sharing cramped accommodations. Tragically, the crisis has resulted in an average of 15 to 20 suicides of resident doctors each year in Maharashtra. To address these issues, resident doctors have proposed the establishment of an 'Abhay Portal' for anonymous complaints, although this initiative has yet to be implemented. They also demand standardized leave policies, advocating for 12 casual leaves and 20 special leaves annually to ensure their well-being.
