Honorary Secretary General's Pen

We are taking over the reins of the office of Indian Medical Association in an unprecedented situation, where many challenges and conflicts confront the medical profession of the country (MCI, BRMS/BRHC, Clinical Establishment bill, Security of Doctors and establishments, Exit Test, Insurance issues and many others). These issues challenge the political identity of the IMA. Lately the credibility of the profession is also at stake due to many challenges and media reporting. The membership at large feels dissociated due to lack of proper information.

My priority will be to bridge the gap between the IMA office and the membership by percolating the information to the grass root level and involving each and every member in the policy making. The main aim of starting the E news is to disseminate the information through paperless electronic media and also to have two ways faster communication,

I appeal to all my state and local branches to send in all the details of events and happenings in their respective branches to the headquarters so that they could be shared throughout the country. I also request  to send the latest directory/soft copy of members along with addresses, emails and mobile numbers so that a databank of members of IMA is created at the headquarter.

I will be looking forward to the guidance from my seniors the past presidents and the esteemed leaders and many other stalwarts of IMA.

It is my proud privilege to work with our dynamic leader and my esteemed friend Dr Vinay Aggarwal as the president and Dr V.K.Narang as the Finance Secretary. I will be looking forward to the support in day to day working from our three young and energetic joint secretaries Dr R.N.Tandon, Dr Ajay Gambhir, Dr H.R.Satija and the other office bearers.

I wish all of you season’s greetings and Happy and prosperous 2011.

 Let us pledge to start the new beginning with the coming New Year
