540 hours. In a single month.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The RTI response from the Department of Pediatrics, AIIMS Nagpur shows Junior Residents being assigned 540 duty hours per month.
That’s 18 hours every single day, across an entire month.
How can anyone expect safe, error-free patient care from doctors pushed to this extent? Sleep deprivation isn’t dedication—it’s a patient safety risk and a human rights issue.
Healthcare cannot run on the exploitation of young doctors.
AIIMS Nagpur, Department of Pediatrics must explain how such duty hours are justified.

Until now, the minimum qualifying criterion for PG medical seats for SC, ST, and OBC candidates was the 40th percentile, about 235 marks out of 800.
As per an order of the Ministry of Health, this has been reduced to the 0th percentile, meaning even a score of –40 out of 800 is now eligible, subject to seat availability.
The one profession that directly deals with life and death, where competence should be sacred and non-negotiable,has been dragged down to this level. Perhaps this is the only country in the world where such a dangerous dilution of standards is not just tolerated, but actively encouraged.
@drgunjand@Dr_longgbottom Mam your views on radiology and all this AI. Your views are always so clear and straight to point. Would like your opinion on this
@charuhasmujumd1@imacuriosguy Sir dermatology is eaten up by bams/bds and self claimed cosmetologists and mbbs who do fellowships.. thats why the cutoff is dropping every year… do u really think AI eats radiology it that simple,legislations,accountability and lobby would let u do that easily??
People think MD medicine is easy unless u have done internship seriously .. its an emergency branch with long hours and hectic.. not that it is undoable but it also isn’t that easy in govt setups imo.not just for residency but post residency too
