Madras HC relief to 66 Doctors, permits super-specialist course admission without bond service - Video

Granting relief to a group of doctors, the Madras High Court has allowed them to get admitted to super-specialist courses without completing their bond service requirements.

The HC bench comprising Justice V. Lakshminarayanan asked the Directorate of Medical Education (DME) to monitor the admission process of these doctors, further specifying that after completing their super-speciality courses, these doctors will report to DME to get bond service posting orders and complete their bond service term.

These directions were issued by the HC bench recently while considering a batch of petitions and review petitions concerning a group of doctors who urged the Court to issue directions to the authorities to return their original documents, which are necessary to get admitted to super-speciality courses.

While considering these petitions, the HC bench noted that there was no dispute regarding the fact that the doctors concerned in these pleas have undergone their post-graduation in the State of Tamil Nadu and consequently completed the course.
