Construction of a new OGH building was one of the crucial demands in the TJUDA strike notice. However, so far, the State government has not been able to propose concrete solutions for the old OGH building, which has been a sticky public health issue for the past 15-years.

Meanwhile, with the rest of the TJUDA units calling-off the strike temporarily, normal medical services have been revived at other teaching hospitals including Gandhi Hospital on Wednesday morning.
