Foreign Medical Graduates recently met with Dr.Aruna Vanikar ji (President,UGMEB NMC) regarding the 3 years internship rule.
Despite clearing one of the tough exam FMGE and undergoing 1 year of CRMI which proves their knowledge and skills,students are alloted with 3 years &
@NMC_IND is discriminating against Foreign Medical Graduates by requiring longer internship of 2/3 years compared to local MBBS graduates only 1 yr
Both groups studied online during COVID-19 but FMGs face additional hurdles and humiliation

विदेशों से MBBS यानी डॉक्टरी की पढ़ाई पूरी कर भारत लौटे छात्र सौतेले व्यवहार के शिकार! अब राष्ट्रीय चिकित्सा आयोग का आया फरमान: एग्जाम पास कर दो साल की इंटर्नशिप करो तब प्रैक्टिस का अधिकार पाओ.
सुनिए इस फरमान पर डॉक्टरी की पढ़ाई कर चुके छात्रों की क्या राय है?

Urgent : Call for Equitable Treatment of Foreign Medical Graduates (FMGs)
The latest directive from #UGMEB@NMC_IND represents a severe blow to thousands of Foreign Medical Graduates #FMGs .This is a matter of urgent concern that threatens to dismantle the hard-earned careers of many dedicated individuals.
In response to the UGMEB’s recent circular (No. U.15024/01/2022-UGMEB dated 9th May 2023) and the public notice issued on December 7th, 2023, we seek to address the implications of the new guidelines for Foreign Medical Graduates #FMGs .
Key Points of Concern:
1.Rejection of Blended Learning Certificates:
•The UGMEB’s decision to reject certificates from FMGs who completed online theory classes supplemented with offline practical training, as mentioned in clause (x) of point 3 of the circular, overlooks the legitimacy and necessity of such educational arrangements during unprecedented times.
•We believe that this measure does not adequately reflect the reality faced by many FMGs, who had no option but to adapt to online learning modes due to global disruptions, such as the COVID-19 pandemic. This adaptation was not only lawful but essential to ensure continuity in their education.
2.Extended Internship Requirements:
•The requirement for FMGs to undergo a Compulsory Rotating Medical Internship (CRMI) for a period of two to three years (repeating a 12-month schedule) is disproportionately burdensome. This far exceeds the standard internship duration and imposes an excessive delay on the professional progression of FMGs.
•This policy appears to be inconsistent with the principle of proportionality and fairness, as it places an undue hardship on FMGs compared to their counterparts who completed their education within India under similar conditions.
Legal and Ethical Considerations:
•Equality and Non-Discrimination: According to Article 14 of the Indian Constitution, which guarantees equality before the law, FMGs should be treated equitably and without discrimination. The UGMEB’s stance on rejecting valid blended learning certificates and extending internship periods disproportionately affects FMGs.
•Legitimacy of Blended Learning: Educational institutions worldwide have adopted online learning during emergencies. Dismissing this mode of education without substantial grounds undermines the adaptive efforts made by FMGs and their institutions under extraordinary circumstances.
•Right to Profession: Article 19(1)(g) of the Indian Constitution provides the right to practice any profession. By imposing unreasonable barriers on FMGs, their ability to practice their chosen profession in a timely manner is being hindered, which could be seen as a violation of their rights.
Call for Fairness and Dialogue:
We urge the UGMEB @NMC_IND to reconsider and amend these guidelines to:
•Acknowledge Blended Learning: Recognize the validity of online theory classes supplemented with offline practical training for FMGs, as long as they meet the educational standards required.
•Reevaluate Internship Duration: Align the CRMI duration for FMGs with the standard internship period to ensure fair and equitable treatment.
•Engage in Dialogue: Establish a platform for constructive dialogue with #FMGs representatives to address their concerns and find mutually beneficial solutions.
Let’s Work Together for a Just and Equitable Medical Education System.
We believe that with collaborative efforts, we can create policies that reflect fairness, inclusivity, and respect for the diverse paths taken by medical graduates.

@AllIndiaFMGs
@official_aimsa requests @NMC_IND to withdraw the recent notice which is against the Foreign Medical Graduates.
As the students have already cleared the ‘FMGE’ with one year of internship,the 3 Year Internship rule will hamper FMGs not only mentally but economically too!
@mansukhmandviya@narendramodi Congratulations. Now look into the matter of FMGs. The mental Harrasment created by NMC. PLEASE look into matter of 2-3 years of internship.
As students are compensating a year along with one year CRMI which is adequate to access there knowledge and skills as they have passed the Screening Test FMGE already!
@dryogendermalik Sir
Kindly consider above issues and intervene as NMC is the only guardian for IMGs & FMGs.

📍નોકરીમાં વય મર્યાદાઓ જતી રહે તેમ હોય
📍 5.5 વર્ષ નું MBBS 9 વર્ષ નો સમય લે
@irushikeshpatel
We @official_aimsa & @aimsa_fmsw request Hon.@DrMansukh Mandaviya @officeofmm@nmc to look into the issue,as 3 (2 years clerkship and one year of internship would affect students physical ,mental & academic well-being.
Neet PG cutoff redused to ZERO PERCENTILE,
Quality of Health education of this country has come to worse. Just image getting zero in exam and still you get chance to become specialist
