Delay in appointment of senior resident doctors is affecting the functioning of major government medical college hospitals (MCHs) the State, which are already strained by pandemic-related work. Those who complete a three-year postgraduate course in medicine are appointed as senior residents in medical college hospitals. Senior residents belonging to the 2017 batch are completing their tenure this week. Though final results of the 2018 batch were out on August 26, they are yet to be appointed as senior residents. The 2021 batch of students are yet to join medical colleges because of the COVID-19-induced delay in the conduct of the National-Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test for postgraduate courses. That means, right now only two batches of PG students are there in government medical colleges.More Related News
