State Health Minister Lal Thanzara announced this at a conference of Mizoram Government Doctors’ Association here and said the decision was taken to tackle manpower shortage in the medical department.

Lal Thanzara also asked government doctors to give satisfactory mental, physical and spiritual care to their patients. He also appealed to the doctors not to neglect their patients in the government hospitals while being engaged in private practice.
