Doctors meet NMC officials to discuss various issues faced by FMGs

Sharing about the meeting with NMC, the Federation of Resident Doctors Association (FORDA) mentioned on X (formerly Twitter), "On a war footing now, a delegation representing #FMG interests met with officials at @NMC_IND today. Key points raised: • #Stipend for interns (currently none) •Absorption of students into various teaching and non-teaching hospitals of states. (Currently there are waiting lists for starting internship!) • Rethinking the merits and demerits of 3 year internship for a special batch of students. Hoping for a positive response from the authorities. #FMG have suffered and faced enormous challenges & discrimination. Some humanitarian approach is need of the hour."
