IMA urges NMC to reevaluate implementation of National Exit Test

Opposing the National Medical Commission's (NMC) plans for conducting the National Exit Test (NExT) for medical graduates, the Indian Medical Association (IMA) has opined that since the standards of medical education across all academic institutions vary, testing the entire country with one test would not be "feasible".

In a letter addressed to the Chairman of NMC, Dr B.N.Gangadhar, the association has highlighted that the medical colleges across the country are facing inadequate technical infrastructure, and faculty training and support. Therefore, IMA has stated that NMC should not proceed with NExT until these prerequisites are duly satisfied.

Two BHU students arrested for allegedly assaulting doctor

In a jaw-dropping incident, two final-year students of the Banaras Hindu University (BHU) were arrested on Monday for allegedly sexually assaulting a 32-year-old male doctor and forcing him to perform unnatural sex.

The accused locked the doctor in the hostel room and robbed him of Rs 60,000 with other valuable gold items.

According to the police, the accused students called the doctor for a medical emergency at the university's hostel. They then imprisoned him in the hostel room, physically assaulted him, coerced him into engaging in non-consensual sexual acts, and robbed him by threatening to share a nude video of him on social media.

Along with these two students, three others were also in the hostel room when the incident occurred.
