Bhubaneswar: In a significant move, the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) in Bhubaneswar has directed all its staff members, including those on vacation or leave, to report for duty immediately.

According to the order, all leaves, including vacation and sanctioned leave, have been cancelled until further notice. The only exception to this directive is for medical grounds, where leave may be granted.
