With Deputy Commissioner of Dharwad Nitesh Patil taking steps to sort out contentious issues pertaining to facilities extended to corona warriors at KIMS Hospital in Hubballi, staff nurses assured him of continuing their services. Several staff nurses resorted to an agitation on Wednesday while declining to return to work unless issues raised by them were resolved. Director of KIMS Ramalingappa Antarathani, who was present in the meeting, said that there would be no discrimination while meeting the demands of the staff nurses. Following their assurances, a representative of KIMS Staff Association Subhash Shellikeri told the meeting that the staff would continue their work as they did before. He said that justice had been delivered to the staff nurses.
