Malabar District Medical Association was formed in 1931
Around three dozen doctors, three of them women, from various parts of the then British Malabar huddled at the Calicut Town Hall on March 28, 1931. What they set up nine decades ago later laid the foundation for the Indian Medical Association (IMA) in Kerala.
From December 13, the Kozhikode branch of the IMA is celebrating the 90th anniversary of this oldest collective of doctors in the State.
According to sources, B. Rama Baliga was the first president and V. Krishna Menon the first secretary of the Malabar District Medical Association formed in 1931. The first meeting was attended by doctors from Calicut, Tellichery, Cannanore, Badagara, Vythir, Tirur, Tanur, Ponnani and Palghat. This was just three years after the first association of doctors practising modern medicine in the country was formed in then Calcutta.
