1yr Rural Service for PG rule already facing controversies

  


HYDERABAD: The new Act making one-year rural service compulsory for new MBBS doctors is all set to snowball into a major controversy as chief minister N Kiran Kumar Reddy has already signed an agreement with private medical colleges, exempting management quota students from rural stint.

Representatives of private medical colleges who hold 60% stake in the medical education sector in Andhra Pradesh say since management quota candidates do not get any government aid unlike merit students, it is unfair to force them to do a year's rural stint.

But the consensual agreement signed with the state government two months ago is likely to be overridden as the Centre is firm on fresh medical graduates across all categories doing a rural stint.

Currently, there is one doctor for every 1,950 people, but the ratio gets worse in rural areas as 75% to 80% of hospitals are concentrated in urban areas, whereas 70% of the population live in rural areas. The government might have the best intention to improve services in villages, but private medical colleges said they are not willing to play ball.

"Government is going to get into huge trouble. We will not follow the new rule for management quota seats," said Dr G Bhaskar Rao, president, All India Unaided Medical Colleges and Universities Association. "If the government is unwilling to abide by the consensual agreement approved by the chief minister , we will nullify seat-sharing agreement with the government in our colleges and take over 100% seats," he added. If any of the terms are nullified, there is a clause in the MoU which says colleges will not share seats with the state government, Rao added.

A total of 60% seats in private medical colleges are filled on merit basis through counselling conducted by the NTR University of Health Sciences, while the rest seats are filled under management quota.

According to the Kondru Murali, minister for medical education, there are a whopping 1,468 vacancies in state-run health facilities. With 8,000 undergraduate and postgraduate doctors graduating annually, posting them to districts and villages is a mammoth task, experts said.

The stand on management quota students not doing rural stint has flummoxed experts, besides leaving students in a quandary as the Act states that MBBS graduates will not be allowed to write PG entrance unless they do a rural stint.

An adamant director of medical education Dr Vishnu Prasad said all doctors trained in government and private colleges will have to do one year rural service.

"Every agreement signed in the past ceases to exist. There is no more confusion. Students will have to do rural service," said Dr Prasad.



Government to make 1yr rural service compulsory for appearing in PG entrance

New Delhi: MBBS doctors aspiring to pursue post-graduation will now have to compulsorily undertake a one-year rural posting before becomming eligible for such a course.

In a major decision aimed at improving rural healthcare in India, the Government has decided to make it mandatory for all MBBS doctors to undergo one year rural posting to sit for post-graduation entrance examination.

Highly placed sources in the Health Ministry told PTI that Union Health Minister Ghulam Nabi Azad cleared a proposal in this regard and the Medical Council of India (MCI) is in the process of issuing a notification.

The decision will be applicable from the next academic session (2014-15) and all MBBS graduates seeking a post- graduate degree in medicine or surgery would have to work for one year in a village before they can take the PG entrance examination.

The decision came after two years of deliberations, as the earlier proposal of increasing the duration of the MBBS course to include a rural posting for doctors was scuttled after stiff opposition.

Doctors are unwilling to work in rural areas leading to people queuing up in city hospitals.

The Health Ministry and the country's medical education regulator (MCI) has been toying with the idea of compulsory rural posting for doctors for quite some time to help improve medical facilities in the rural hinterland of the country.

State Govt responsible for NO AIIMS in WB

KOLKATA, 8 JUNE: The conflict between the state and the Centre came to the fore when Union minister for health and family welfare, Mr Ghulam Nabi Azad, today squarely held the previous and present state governments responsible for the All India Institute of Medical Science (AIIMS) not coming up in the state.

“While the Uttar Pradesh government has sanctioned land in Rae Bareily for AIIMS, the West Bengal government is yet to do so," the minister said while addressing a Press conference at the Pradesh Congress Committee (PCC) office here today.

Mr Azad said though five years have passed since land was identified in Raiganj, the state government is yet to give its nod. He said that things did not change even after the Trinamul government came to power. "The previous government in Uttar Pradesh too did not sanction land, but the present dispensation did it," he said, drawing a parallel.

Mr Azad said it is unfortunate that the West Bengal government is not realising that once AIIMS comes up in Raiganj, not only the state in general and north Bengal in particular will benefit, it would also open up employment opportunities.

"People will no longer need to travel to Delhi and Mumbai; also, the proposed AIIMS at Raiganj will bring in investment to the tune of Rs 1,000 crore," Mr Azad said, ruing he fact that there has been no progress on land acquisition.

“The district has been chosen based on needs of the people. Though land has to be acquired by the zilla parishad, it cannot do so without the help of the state government. The government, unfortunately, has not shown much interest in the project,” the Union minister said.

Six campuses of AIIMS are already coming up in Chhattisgarh, Bihar, Madhya Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Orissa and Rajasthan.

Earlier in the day, Mr Azad launched a book co-authored by an eminent homoeopath, Dr Prasanta Banerjee, and his son, Dr Pratip Banerjee. The book ~ The Banerjee Protocols: A new Method of Treatment and Homeopathic Medicines ~ focuses on homeopathy that follows a scientific method of treatment and and relies on advanced tests rather than the conventional method.

Addressing the gathering at the book launch, Mr Azad said, the Indian Council of Medical Research is looking into the claims made in the bookto check their authenticity.
