Justice for Patients and Resident Doctors

We request Honourable Supreme Court of India to listen and give decision regarding EWS reservation criteria on a high priority basis, so that NEET PG Counseling can take place and justice is given to suffering junior doctors as well as ailing humanity. It's almost six months delay in the counselling and resident doctors as well as post intern doctors have suffered enormously in their learning and academics.
They studied more than twenty medical subjects day and night ,revised whole of MBBS curriculum once more in just one year and qualified one of the toughest entrance test NEET PG to enter into three years residency course, again an extremely tough journey, both mentally and physically, where day and night merges and hunger becomes secondary. Why these young medicos have to face this mental agony, a mess ,created by someone else ?


Already their training and teaching have received a big jolt due to corona , and now these kind of delays , which crop due to insensitive system leaves scars on minds and hearts of young doctors.
One complete batch has not joined, leaving severe shortage of junior resident doctors in government hospitals across the country. The second year batch is overloaded and thus patient care is suffering, their academic and research including thesis is facing big setback. And this is also one reason why many of our bright young students leave India after doing MBBS.





In the interest of patient care , academics and training of future doctors of our country , honourable Supreme court is humbly requested to listen the matter as early as possible. Such strikes lead to great hardships for both students and patients as well as for country. They should not be allowed to occur at the very beginning. Our beurucratic system should not be so lethargic and in sensitive that such situations arise.





Hope the God will soon listen and justice will be delivered.
