In a formal memorandum submitted to the Chief Minister and the Director of Medical Education and Research (DMER), Haryana, the Democratic Medical Association (DMA) sought clear bond policy for medical interns belonging to the 2020 batch. It is alleged that the issue is affecting MBBS 2020 interns studying all government medical colleges affiliated with Pt. B.D. Sharma University of Health Sciences, Rohtak (UHSR).

According to the DMER notification dated 01.01.2026, interns are required to give consent to the proposed bond policy. However, the association claimed that several fundamental components of the policy remain unclear, including the nature of service obligations, salary/remuneration, duration of the bond, its impact on postgraduate (PG) admissions, and the legal framework for implementation.
Calling the process unfair, the association said that no consent can be taken unless the complete policy is clear and transparent. As a result, the association has urged the Haryana Chief Minister to issue a detailed and clear notification explaining all aspects of the bond policy.
The association stated that any policy having a direct impact on the career, higher education prospects, and service obligations of medical graduates must be accompanied by a detailed, transparent, and unambiguous notification.
The notification should clearly specify the scope of applicability, nature of duties and postings, service conditions and salary/remuneration, duration of service, impact on PG admissions and competitive examinations and legal mechanism for implementation
The doctors' body has also requested that an official meeting be convened at the DMER level at the earliest, involving competent officials from DMER, representatives of the concerned medical colleges and representatives of interns and DMA India.
This, the association said, would enable a structured, transparent, and conclusive discussion on the issue.
The memorandum has been jointly signed by Dr Amit Vyas, National President of DMA India; Dr Shubh Pratap Solanki, National General Secretary; Dr Bhanu Kumar, National Vice President; and Dr Priyanshu Sharma, National Secretary, Women’s Wing.
National President Dr. Amit Vyas stated that seeking consent without clearly defining rules and conditions may be administratively convenient, but it is institutionally inappropriate. He further emphasized that interns are fully prepared to serve, but they must first be informed under what conditions, for what duration, and with what implications for their future.
