We hope that our colleagues across the nation will join us in this hour of need," read a statement issued by the RDA.The doctors associated with the Association, however, said that they would continue to wear red-stained bandages and helmets as a sign of protest.The ultimatum came a day after Banerjee gave the protesting doctors in her state four hours to withdraw their strike and return to work or vacate the hostels.( With inputs from IANS )
