Relaxation of strict rules on postgraduate medical admissions: Ramadoss demands CHENNAI: BAMA founder Ramadas has demanded that the rule that only MBBS graduates in medical colleges in tamil Nadu be admitted to government reserved seats in post-graduate medical courses should be relaxed. In a statement issued by him in this regard, "The government of tamil Nadu has announced that only those who have studied Bachelor of Medicine (MPBS) in Medical Colleges in tamil Nadu will be admitted to the government reserved seats in Postgraduate Medical Courses (MD, MS). This decision Although it seems to benefit the students of tamil Nadu, one section will seriously affect the students of tamil Nadu. The notification for the admission of students for the government reserved seats for post graduate medical degrees and diploma courses in government medical colleges and private medical colleges in tamil Nadu was published on the 6th. Deadline to apply online has been given till 13th Thursday. According to the explanatory note, only those who have completed undergraduate medical course and compulsory training in tamil Nadu can apply for postgraduate medical course. In a way this is welcome. It is understood that the reason for this is the tamil Nadu government's wish that only tamil Nadu students get government reserved seats. But in the context of all-India reserved seats in medical studies and reputed central medical institutes, it is wrong for the tamil Nadu government to take such a decision without considering the interests of tamil Nadu students studying in them. tamil Nadu students will be affected by this decision. Yes, even if they are students of tamil Nadu, if they have done their undergraduate medical in other states, they can't join postgraduate courses in tamil Nadu government Medical Colleges which are built with their tax money. students of tamil Nadu who score high in NEET will, on that basis, want to join reputed institutes like delhi AIIMS, chandigarh Institute of Post Graduate Medical education and Research, Puduwai JIPMAR. Similarly, some people pursue medical courses in medical equivalent universities in neighboring states despite scoring low marks. Their actions were not wrong; No one can fault it. Although studying medicine in other states, they belong to tamil Nadu. They will work in tamil Nadu only after studying junior medicine. Even if they studied medicine in other states, it was because of the desire to study in reputed institutes and because they got seats in colleges in other states, not because of anti-Tamil Nadu mentality. It is not a crime for people from tamil Nadu to go to other states to study medicine. It is not fair to deny them the opportunity to enroll in post-graduate courses in medical colleges in tamil Nadu, treating it as something like giving a second chance to tamil Nadu. It will have a huge impact on tamil over time. Almost 600 students from tamil Nadu go to other states every year to study medicine. Likewise, a few hundred people go abroad to study medicine. In tamil Nadu, only those who studied junior medicine can study post-graduate medicine in tamil Nadu government reserved places, even if they get an opportunity to study medicine in higher educational institutions including AIIMS, they will not accept it; If they also compete to study junior medicine in medical colleges in tamil Nadu, the competition will be tough. In the end, the number of students studying medicine in tamil Nadu will drop to 1000 every year. This only affects tamil Nadu. Let me repeat... The intention behind the announcement by the tamil Nadu government that only undergraduate medical students in tamil Nadu medical colleges can join government reserved seats in postgraduate medical courses is commendable. But that will affect the students of tamil Nadu. If the rule is changed to tamilnadu students instead of tamilnadu college students, it will be more useful. Therefore, the tamil Nadu government should relax that rule and allow tamil Nadu students who have studied junior medicine in other states to study post-graduate medicine in tamil Nadu government reserved places."
