Tiwari, seniormost GMC doctor, named new dean
Panaji: Dr Jai Prakash Tiwari , professor of nephrology, was appointed as the new Dean of Goa Medical College and Hospital (GMC) by the govt on Tuesday. Dr Shivanand Bandekar retired as the Dean on Monday. For the last four years, the govt did not appoint Tiwari as GMC dean despite him being the most senior doctor at GMC as per the seniority list. This is the second time the govt has issued an order to appoint Tiwari as dean. Tiwari joined GMC in 1995 and became a professor in 2001. He was instrumental in setting up the dialysis and kidney transplant facility for the first time at the state's premier . He was also instrumental in starting a specialised course called DM Nephrology, which is offered in a few govt-run medical colleges. Since 2021, the Goa Public Service Commission (GPSC) has been recommending Tiwari's name for the top post at GMC. In 2022, the personnel department under chief minister Pramod Sawant issued an order to appoint Tiwari as dean, but a few hours later, health minister Vishwajit Rane requested Sawant to keep the order in abeyance. Bandekar was appointed dean in February 2019 after former Dean Dr Pradeep Naik was asked to report to the office of the public health department. Earlier, the state govt rejected the recommendation of the GPSC. Get the latest lifestyle updates on Times of India, along with Doctor's Day 2025 , messages and quotes!

AAP leader questions functioning of GPSC, alleges malpractice
Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader and spokesperson Pravin Ram on Tuesday alleged malpractice in the Gujarat Public Service Commission (GPSC). During a press conference in Ahmedabad, he said that there was proof that people associated with social organisations, who had conducted mock tests to help students prepare for government jobs, had also been on the panels actually interviewing these candidates. Naming an organisation in Surat that provides coaching for government jobs, the AAP leader said that an officer, who had gone to conduct mock tests had then sat on the panel to interview candidates. 'Some students told GPSC Chairman Hasmukh Patel on X that 'it is commendable that you cancelled the Food and Drug interview, but if the expert on the interview panel of Class-II Industrial Safety Health Officer went to provide guidance in various coaching classes, then why was his interview not canceled?'' Ram said. 'So it is clear from these incidents that this is a kind of scam. So we and the students demand that if any expert associated with coaching classes in the Food and Drug Department had his interviews cancelled, then interviews of the Industrial Safety Health Officer expert must also be cancelled. Our question is: When will Hasmukh Patel investigate into the matter…?' he said. He further said, 'Before the interview, someone who sits in the panel should have all their details checked to see if they were associated with any social organisation or educational coaching class.' The Indian Express reached out to Patel, a retired IPS officer and the incumbent Chairman of the GPSC, but he refused to comment on the matter.
