Medical University / Specialized institutes. The Government spends large amount of money to impart Medical Education including Post-Graduate Medical Education. It levies nominal fees and at the same time provides stipend to Private candidates and Service candidates. It is natural that the Government desires to ensure that these seats are not wasted. Further, the Government looks forward to these Doctors who have undergone Post-Graduate training to serve the poor and the needy of this country at large and this State in particular. The public have the right to expect the Specialists to utilize the skills they acquired during their training for the benefit of the sick, the poor and the needy.
