Why is National Doctor's Day 2025 celebrated on July 1?
National Doctor's Day 2025: It is aptly said that a doctor is not just a healer, but he or she is the source of hope and comfort for those in pain. Every year, lakhs of students in India prepare for NEET UG to become doctors and pursue MBBS. In India, July 1 is an annual observance to acknowledge and recognise the contributions of physicians to individual lives and communities. The day is also celebrated to honour the birth and death anniversary of Dr Bidhan Chandra Roy, a physician, freedom fighter, and former West Bengal Chief Minister. This year, the theme for National Doctors' Day is 'Behind the Mask: Who Heals the Healers'. India has been celebrating the day since 1991 to honour Dr Bidhan Chandra Roy. For his works in the medical profession, he was also conferred the Bharat Ratna, India's highest civilian award, in 1961. Dr Bidhan Chandra Roy played an instrumental role in establishing several esteemed medical institutions, including the Indian Medical Association and the Medical Council of India. Overworked, underpaid: Doctors' life in a hospital Dr. Roy graduated with honours in Mathematics from Patna College with a Bachelor of Arts degree. In 1901, he was accepted into both the Indian Institute of Engineering Science and Technology and Calcutta Medical College, opting for the latter. During his time at Calcutta Medical College, he faced significant challenges, including financial struggles, as his father was no longer working. Fortunately, he secured scholarships to help support his education and living expenses, as mentioned on the official website of the National Library of Medicine. As stated on the website, he became the first person to finish the Fellowship of the Royal College of Surgeons (FRCS) in surgery in just two years and three months. Not only for his medical contribution, he is also credited with setting up various educational institutions like IIT Kharagpur. He also set up the Institute of Mental Health, the Infectious Disease Hospital, and the first postgraduate medical college in Calcutta.

At centre of row over admission to Kashmiri doctor, Coimbatore hospital enforced ‘grooming rules' late last year
Kovai Medical Centre and Hospital (KMCH), which has been in the news for asking a Kashmiri doctor to trim his beard to take admission, has a set of 'grooming rules' that postgraduate student doctors must follow. According to a circular issued on September 25, 2024, PG doctors should follow a 'personal hygiene code'. According to this code, male doctors are asked to shave their beards and cut their hair. 'Proper haircut and shaving should be the requirement for male students,' the circular issued by the educational institute's chairman's office reads. The circular also states that male doctors should avoid 'jeans, tight pants, high coloured shirts'. 'Female students should not use leggings inside the hospital,' it states. PG doctors The Indian Express spoke to said the college enforces these rules strictly and officials confront those who don't comply. The circular also says that 'religious dressing' is not allowed inside the hospital. 'We respect all religions,' the circular reads. The Kashmiri doctor, Zubair Ahmed, has accused the college of forcing him to 'quit his super speciality seat'. The doctor, who was allotted a seat at the nephrology department of the hospital after he cleared the NEET-SS, was allegedly told by the hospital administration that he would have to either shave or trim his beard if he were to take admission. The doctor refused, but agreed to wear a mask to 'hide his beard'. He eventually decided to forgo the seat at the hospital. When contacted for comment, a hospital spokesperson told The Indian Express, 'We ask doctors to follow personal hygiene and grooming because they have to deal with patients with low immunity. Other than patient care, we have no other motive behind imposing the grooming code.' The spokesperson added, 'Humble and pleasant is what we need to be when we meet the patients. Hence, the grooming code.'

Tamil Nadu regains 39 super speciality medical seats for the second round of counselling
After having to surrender 145 super speciality medical seats reserved for in-service candidates to the All-India Quota (AIQ) counselling, Tamil Nadu is getting back 39 of those seats for the second round of State counselling, which is yet to be scheduled. In Tamil Nadu, 50% of seats in super speciality courses in government medical colleges are reserved for in-service candidates, totalling 215. The first round of counselling for the State quota in-service candidates was completed on May 27. The State had then requested the Directorate General of Health Services (DGHS) to indicate the schedule to conduct the second round of counselling to allow upgradation for the in-service candidates. However, in early June, the DGHS asked the State to revert the vacant in-service seats to the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) to include them in the All-India seat matrix since the second round of All-India Counselling had started. Following this, 145 seats meant for in-service candidates were surrendered for the AIQ, sparking criticism among a section of government doctors, since it went against the 50% reservation for in-service candidates. Health Minister Ma. Subramanian wrote to the Union Health Minister expressing concern about surrendering unfilled in-service seats to the AIQ without conducting the mandatory second round of counselling at the State-level. He also sought his intervention to ensure that all 50% seats earmarked for in-service candidates under the State quota are retained and made available for the second round of State-level super speciality counselling. However, with the second round of AIQ counselling completed, 39 seats are being surrendered to the State. Request to MCC In addition, the State has sought the MCC to return the seats of Tamil Nadu candidates who have gone on to choose seats in institutions such as the All India Institute of Medical Sciences and Jawaharlal Institute of Postgraduate Medical Education and Research through the Institutes of National Importance-Combined Entrance Test, a health official said, adding: 'We have sought returning of such seats so that we could add on to the second round of State counselling.' A source in the Health Department said all eligible in-service candidates should have been called for the first round of counselling to ensure that more seats were filled.
