Referring to the scarcity of medical professionals, the order had further stated, "Where as there is a dearth of doctors in the State and there is a reluctance to serve the State after completion of course amongst the doctors studying in different Government Medical/ Dental Colleges at the cost of State exchequer, in order to overcome the dearth, Government after careful consideration have been pleased to introduce a policy for execution of an agreement in shape of Bond with the objective to retain the passing out MBBS BDS doctors to utilise their services in the greater interest of the State."
