Why doctors all over NEPAL are on strike ?

Doctors are on the strike for the last 4 days. Its in solidarity to the dream and vision of a single man, Dr Govinda KC who is on a fast until death for the last 12 days. He is an unmarried orthopedic surgeon, has been in his self sponsored visit to help every victim of national and international calamity including Haiti,
India, Myanmar, the Philippines and Pakistan. He stands against the corruption (worth 6 million $) involved in the appointment of the dean in Tribhuwan University and affiliation to private medical schools. The government and the officials are doing every measure to weaken the step of Dr KC who has now been called the "Gandhi", "Mandela"
and even "Hippocrates" by his followers. But the
doctors are giving all the necessary medical services through the emergency room and continuing their protest through mass resignation, peaceful protests and even OPDs in the streets. They cant afford to lose their icon Dr KC in whose name 1000 docs took an oath today to stand against corruption in the
health sector.
