Around 1,000 AYUSH house surgeons and PG scholars in Telangana have been on an indefinite strike for 11 days, demanding stipend parity, arrears from January 2026 and timely salaries. UG students have also joined the protest in their support.
Former Telangana DPH Dr G Srinivasa Rao has urged the State government to hike AYUSH doctors’ stipends and clear arrears, citing disparities with allopathy medicos. He also backed the ongoing protest by AYUSH house surgeons and postgraduates at Indira Park.
