Rural service bond for Maha doctors


Wednesday, November 01, 2017

The Maharashtra government is planning to retrospectively implement the mandatory rural service bond for MBBS students who took admission to the course in 2010, state medical education minister Girish Mahajan has said. For doctors, working in rural areas for a year is a mandatory provision made by the state government.

Mahajan said a list would be compiled online of the students completing their medical education, for their requirements in rural, semi-rural and tribal areas.

"The state government is also working on shifting online the entire allocation of rural areas to students. The plan is to implement the mandatory service for the students who took the admission in 2010. Those who have not yet completed their mandatory service, they will be given a period of next two years to complete it," he said in a statement. The bond is necessary so that the newly graduated students get an experience of working in rural areas.  It will also benefit  rural areas and this whole exercise will also help in developing a sense of social responsibility.'
