Srinagar 19 Mar 2018
Launching a scathing attack on PDP-BJP government in the state over the sacking of a doctor over his Facebook post, opposition National Conference leader Omar Abdullah on Monday said.
“ministers can protest to defend rape and murder accused but a doctor can’t point out the truth”.
Omar’s reaction came in wake of government order in which a doctor Amit Kumar, who was working as an anesthesiologist at the Government Medical College Jammu, was sacked for “criticising” the government on Facebook.
Taking to social networking website, Twitter, Omar wrote: “Ministers can protest to defend rape/murder accused but a doctor can’t point out the truth.
