TDP president and former chief minister N Chandrababu Naidu on Thursday shot off a letter to Chief Minister Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy demanding that the government immediately revoke the suspension of Dr Sudhakar of Narsipatnam Government Hosptial. <\/p>\n
In his letter, Naidu said the suspension of the doctor will hurt the morale of the medical fraternity and hence the government should revoke its decision to suspend the doctor. The AP government on Wednesday suspended the doctor after his video, complaining about a lack of protective gear and masks at a coronavirus faculty, went viral.

He also mentioned about four medical workers in Anatapur district who contracted the corona virus while treating a 58-year-old man from Hindupur town, who had passed away due to Covid-19 recently. <\/p>\n
