The protest was held under the chairmanship of Sushil Sudan (president JKMEF, Member PCI), who while speaking on the occasion said that the Federation had suspended its protest on August 5 this year after reaching an agreement with then Financial Commissioner (Additional Chief Secretary), Health and Medical Education Department on Departmental Promotion Committee of all categories of Health employees and amendment in SRO -20.
