Dear Colleagues,

IMA HQs. has called for an emergency Action Committee meeting on Sunday, August 4, 2019 to decide on further strategy on NMC.

Government of India has bulldozed 25 Bills till date in this session despite of huge objections. No amendments have been accepted on any Bill.

The Government accepted 4 amendments to NMC Bill, 2019 because of the nation-wide movement of Indian Medical Association. They all relate to representations in NMC. Some clarifications have been provided on other issues.

IMA is raising further questions for clarity in all the issues. After studying the clarifications, we will appeal to the Hon'ble President of India regarding our concerns.

The letter written to Dr. Harsh Vardhan, Hon’ble Union Minister of Health and Family Welfare, Government of India by our National President, Dr. Santanu Sen, in his capacity as Rajya Sabha member, is appended for your study and reflection.
