Even as the government is encouraging people to felicitate COVID warriors, higher-ups in the Health Department have asked Ayush doctors to remove the prefix ‘Dr’ from their names.

While referring to orders from Directorate of Health Services (DHS), Jammu, the Three-Block Medical Officers (BMOs) have issued a controversial order, warning strict action against, the AYUSH doctors who use prefix 'Dr' for any official communication.

The Health Department has faced criticism for such orders amidst the ongoing pandemic.
