Expressing concerns over the ongoing efforts by private medical college management associations to dismantle the Convener Quota system in Undergraduate and Postgraduate medical admissions, under the pretext of introducing a uniform/common fee structure, the doctors in Telangana have sought the Government's intervention in this regard.

Recently, writing to the Health Secretary Christina Z Chongthu, the Healthcare Reforms Doctors Association (HRDA) said that the proposal for a uniform or common fees across all categories is not a "benign reform", but actually "a calculated strategy aimed at eliminating affordable Convener Quota seats and converting merit-based medical education into a privilege accessible only to the affluent."
