SRINAGAR, Sep 04: Chief Minister Omar Abdullah is scheduled to meet representatives of MBBS and BDS interns on Friday afternoon to discuss their demand for a revision of the monthly stipend.
The meeting comes amid an ongoing strike by interns across Jammu and Kashmir, who are seeking an increase in the stipend from Rs 12,300 to Rs 30,000 per month.
The interns launched the indefinite protest on August 31, citing the delay in revising the payment.
