If this data is true, it should worry all of us.
The decline in top rankers choosing surgery isn’t about students changing—it’s about the system they’re entering.
Surgical residency still carries the image of long hours, hierarchy, limited mentorship, and delayed operative independence. And earlier, surgery was the primary procedural branch—if you wanted to “do something with your hands,” you chose surgery.
That’s no longer the case.
Today, most medical superspecialties offer procedures too. So procedural satisfaction + financial security is now possible without a decade-long surgical training journey.
So students aren’t running away from hard work—they’re choosing environments that feel structured, supported.
Instead of criticising their choices, we need to reform surgical training—respect, mentorship, monitored hands-on opportunities, simulation labs, mental-health support, and cultures that build surgeons rather than break them.

Who killed 14 kids?
Not the companies that manufactured the toxic cough syrups
Not the state govts that approved the formulas
Not the central govt that issued advisories after the deaths
Ah! Must be the parents who overdosed
The doctor with 40yrs experience who followed state directives
The pharmacist just doing his job procuring it

Today, three people were bitten by stray dog "INSIDE" the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in Delhi during the World Para Athletics Championships. The victims include a Kenyan and a Japanese coach.
This makes our bid for the Olympics even stronger. Delhi Olympics 2036, here we come.
The older I get, the more I realise how much my parents did for me. And how little I can do in return.
You can never fully repay your parents. All you can do is make sure their sacrifices weren’t in vain.
પૂલ પડી જાય,વિમાન પડી જાય,ખાડા વાળા રસ્તાથી અસંખ્ય લોકો જીવ ગુમાવે તો પણ ભૂલ કોની એ "તપાસનો" વિષય;
પણ એંસી વર્ષના દર્દીનું સારવાર દરમિયાન મોત થાય તો બધાંને તરત જ ખબર પડી જાય કે ડોકટરની ભૂલ હતી🙁🤔
Those who are trying to demoralize the Indian Armed Forces by calling for de-escalate and using hashtags like #SayNoToWar—remember their names and accounts. Once Pakistan is dealt with, we'll handle these liberals. This is a Dharma Yudh—we do not surrender to Adharma. It is a battle of right against wrong, of good against evil.
I dont know what the Govt will do, but whatever decision Govt & Security establishment takes i will fully back them. Some times retaliation might come in a different way unannounced at a place of our choosing & timing. Which i will leave it to them !
A humble request. Please stand united as nation. We can crib abt our political ideologies & differences later. Lets back our security forces to hilt in these hours of crisis.
Singing Jana Gana Mana at the NaMo stadium before Coldplay went up on the stage.1.34 lakhs people watched it and sang it in Unison and I was one of them.Couldn’t be more overwhelmed with PRIDE that our country is witnessing such a poetic moment.

Even UPSC has 6 attempt limit.
Here we have Doctors justifying 7-10 drops for NEET UG.
I won’t say anything- otherwise people get offended.
Just ensure to take Folic acid when planning a baby. That’s all.
For the first time in history, GMC Udhampur records ZERO open merit selections in 2024. Not a single general category student made the cut. Let that sink in.
This isn't just about numbers - it's about the future of our healthcare system and the principles of fair competition. When merit takes a backseat, we're not just losing students - we're losing health care system

As a Doctor most of us have reached that state when missing these Cold play and Diljit concerts doesn’t surprise us anymore
During our Medical College days majority have missed important family functions, marriages of closed ones , Vacations , birthdays of family members and don’t know how many memorable events
This FOMO is only a result of unnecessary comparisons with a trendy society the same that we have faced all our life and especially from the day 1 of preparing for competitive exams like NEET .
Invest your privilege in long term self happiness goals, short terms will follow !
Around 14 lakh people appear for the UPSC exams yearly, for roughly 1,000 seats. To put it another way, out of 14 lakh, 13.99 lakh will fail.
The same goes for other competitive exams like NEET, JEE, etc. That's why, for any competitive exam, 'I can't do this' is just as important as 'Yes, I can do it.'
One reason why people lack this introspection is that the coaching industry convinces them that 'I can't do this' is not an option, with motivation like 'Work hard, keep going, Raja banna hai tumhe, it will happen for sure, it's a test match, not a T20.' They keep the hope alive so the money keeps flowing.
You are the best judge of your capabilities. If you feel you can’t, let it go. Maybe your future lies elsewhere. Save your time, energy, and money for the things you're truly meant to do.
