Shashanka Koirala, a general secretary of the main opposition party Nepali Congress, has urged doctors and health workers in the country to work with strong willpower and courage to defeat the current coronavirus crisis.

He has requested the doctors not to work for money but with a humane heart and dedication as that would be significant in overcoming the crisis.

In his statement issued on Sunday, Koirala also tells the government to ensure protective personal equipment and all the needs of the doctors on time and arrange test facilities in all provinces.

He demands that the government test family members, neighbours and close friends of the infected persons also.
