Ayurveda medical assn urges health ministry to allow UG, PG students to undergo training in surgery theaters
When the Union health ministry is working out changes to the Medical Termination of Pregnancy (MTP) Amendment Bill in order to allow Ayush doctors to conduct non-invasive abortions, the Ayurveda Medical Association of India (AMAI) is gearing up to raise a legitimate demand to the government and to the modern medical practitioners’ associations to allow UG and PG students of Ayush to undergo three months training in surgery theatres as per their curriculum.
The demand was discussed in detail at the executive committee of AMAI and was endorsed by all the members. The association will force the central Ayush ministry to forward their demand to the Cabinet to get the government nod, said Dr Rejith Anand, general secretary of AMAI, a pan India ayurvedic practitioners’ association. Besides, they will put the demand before IMA and other organisations.
The latest decision of the Union health ministry for changes to MTP Amendment Bill has been taken for discussion despite strong objections from Indian Medical Association and Federation of Obstetric and Gynaecological Societies of India (FOGSI). [Source]
