The deployment comes after doctors demanded security at work places.



Dhaka, Sept 04 - Members of the Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) have been deployed at Chittagong Medical College Hospital for security of doctors and other employees.

The information was confirmed by BGB's public relations officer, Md. Shariful Islam at BGB headquarters this morning.

The deployment comes after doctors demanded security at work places.

Earlier, doctors across the country had called for a "complete shutdown" to demand justice for the assault and vandalism against medical professionals at the emergency department of Dhaka Medical College Hospital.

Expressing solidarity the doctors at CMCH, the only specialized hospital in greater Chottogram, also went on strike, resulting in a suspension of all hospital services. However, the strike was later called off, and the doctors resumed their duties.-UNB
