Doctors stir: HC orders judicial probe, transfer of cops

Lucknow: Stepping in to end the deadlock over doctors' strike against attack on their colleagues, Allahabad High Court today ordered a judicial probe and directed the UP government to transfer SSP, Kanpur, Yashaswi Yadav, and



However as the court resumed the hearing in the second half, the state government informed it that a one man judicial commission of retired justice R.M.S Chauhan has already been set up.

Following the submission, the court kept its order in abeyance and directed the state government to file Justice Chauhan Commission's report in three weeks.  

Also, the state government informed the court that with the model code of conduct coming into effect from today, police officials cannot be transferred but the court refused to consider it.

The six-day-old strike has adversely hit medical services in several parts of the state.

The medicos are protesting after their colleagues at GSVC medical college were allegedly beaten up by Kanpur police and supporters of SP MLA Irfan Solanki on February 28 following an altercation with him.  
The doctors have been demanding arrest of Solanki, action against SSP Yashasvi Yadav and withdrawal of charges against 24 junior doctors.
