Today, On 9th September, The Indian Medical Association (IMA) in West Bengal stands firm in their support for the ongoing doctors’ strike, despite the Supreme Court’s order to return to duty. The protests are in response to the rape and murder of a postgraduate doctor in Kolkata. The IMA criticizes the court’s decision and emphasizes the need for justice and the fight against healthcare corruption.
A group of Indian doctors with foreign medical degrees have petitioned the Supreme Court, challenging the denial of stipends during their internships in India. The court has sought a response from the government and the National Medical Commission. The petition highlights the disparities faced by foreign-trained medical graduates compared to those educated in India.
