A gang of 5 to 6 MNS activists manhandled a lady intern and smashed the glass partitions of a casualty ward at a local medical college here.
The incident took place in the local Shree Vasantrao Naik Govt Medical College on Thursday mid night when the group allegedly threw a wooden stool at one of the interns on night duty.
One of the relatives of a patient was also injured.
The interns launched an indefinite strike today to stress for their demand for security and protection while on duty.
The Maharashtra State Govt nurses Federation has extended their support to the agitating interns.
The Chief Medical Officer on duty Prashant Pawar has lodged a complaint in the city police station against the miscreants and the cops have arrested three of them while two others are still absconding.
