Madhya Pradesh: With their demands being continually neglected by the state government, medical faculty of Madhya Pradesh based medical colleges are slowly submitting their en-masse resignations to the deans of their respective medical colleges.
The issue of medical teachers under Madhya Pradesh Medical Teacher Association (MPMTA) has been persisting for a long time with the government repeatedly promising that their demands. Major demands of the teachers surrounded time-bound promotions as well implementation of the 7th pay commission from 2016. Some of the other demands made by the doctors included up-gradation of promotion policy and 3 tier promotion system.
According to the faculty, in other states and as per MCI, the first promotion of faculty is done in 4-5 years but in MP it is after 12 years and there are minimum 3 promotions for the teachers if they spent 30 years in the field but in the state, it stops after 2 promotions.
Earlier in September 2019, the doctors had threatened the government with mass resignations and had only backed down after the chief minister's representative promised them that the government will fulfil their demands.
