HYDERABAD, September 23: In a joint statement released today, the Indian Medical Association (IMA) Telangana State President, Dr. D. Dwarakanatha Reddy, and Hon. Secretary, Dr. V. Ashok, vehemently condemned the recent mob attack on the Superintendent at Government General Hospital (GGH), Mahbubabad. They described the incident as a "barbaric act" that is not just an assault on an individual doctor but an attack on the dignity and authority of the entire medical profession. Such violent acts in vulnerable healthcare settings create an atmosphere of fear, significantly demotivating doctors who serve our communities with dedication. Unlike other administrative offices, hospitals are uniquely susceptible to such aggression, and this alarming occurrence is a stark reminder of the risks our medical professionals face daily. The IMA TS believes that while enhancing security measures is essential, the long-term solution must address the root causes of such violence. We call for unity within our medical fraternity and solidarity from society at large to stand firm against these heinous acts. A safe and respectful environment is non-negotiable for doctors to perform their vital work without fear. The Indian Medical Association, Telangana State, demands: Immediate arrest and prosecution of all individuals involved in the attack under the strictest applicable laws. Give title,meta title,meta description,keywords and hint,tag Strengthening of security protocols in all government healthcare facilities to prevent future incidents. A clear commitment from law enforcement and the government to ensure the safety and security of all healthcare professionals. This act is condemnable not only by our medical fraternity but by every concerned citizen who values the sanctity of the doctor-patient relationship and the safety of our healthcare institutions. We will not stand by while the protectors of health become targets of violence.
