Bharatratna Atalbihari Vajpayee Medical College gets recognised for bond service
Pune: The Maharashtra government has recognised Bharatratna Atalbihari Vajpayee Medical College (BAVMC), Pune, as a centre where MBBS and postgraduate (PG) medical graduates from government colleges can complete their one-year mandatory bond service.
With this, medical graduates from government colleges can now work at BAVMC and its associated hospital, Kamala Nehru Hospital (KNH), instead of being posted elsewhere. This move will also help ease the shortage of doctors in Pune’s civic-run hospitals.
As per the state’s order on April 28, MBBS and PG doctors who completed their education in other government medical colleges and BAVMC can now serve at the college's hospital for one year as part of the mandatory bond service before pursuing higher studies.
