Members of the Tamil Nadu Medical Students Association (TNMSA) on Thursday formed a human chain in front of the Madras Medical College and intensified their protests against the Centre's proposal for a one-year compulsory rural posting for MBBS graduates who want to opt for a post graduate degree.
The Government proposal is a wise and practical decision in view of doctor shortage in rural areas. Probably they lack spirit of social service like any other field in the country. But one should understand the way the young graduates in western countries have to enrol for military service for a year before taking up higher studies and get into a job. Our doctors are supposed to take a lesson from their practice and conduct themselves accordingly.
