Assistant Professors with MBBS degree as essential qualification entitled to NPA: Delhi HC
Granting relief to a group of doctors employed at Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU), the Delhi High Court bench recently held that an individual holding the post of Assistant Professor in a Central University, requiring an MBBS degree as an essential qualification, would also be entitled to a Non-Practicing Allowance (NPA).
"The rationale behind grant of NPA appears to be in the form of an incentive to Medical Doctors in lieu of their private practice. This rationale apparently is predicated on the individual possessing a MBBS degree recognized by the Indian Medical Council Act, 1956 or the Dentists Act, 1948 as an essential qualification alone without anything further. Thus, an individual holding the post of Assistant Professor in Central University requiring MBBS degree as an essential qualification would also be entitled to NPA," observed the HC bench comprising Justice Tushar Rao Gedela.
Responding to several media reports about the price rise of essential medicines from April 1, 2024, the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare has come out with a statement calling many reports claiming medicine prices to witness a significant hike by up to 12% from April, 2024 as false, misleading and malicious.
The ministry has clarified that of the 923 formulations which fall under the ceiling price, 728 will see no change in prices while 54 will see a price rise of merely one paisa.
