Another "August Kranti", and this time we are lucky ,that we can participate..

India has glorious history of dedication and patriotism. We are lucky to have men like Shahid Bhagat singh and Mahatma Gandhi, borned in our country. The fundamental thing which differentiates these men from rest of the others is their true unselfish thinking…action for the cause, without expecting name, fame or money.

The era we are living today is the era, which demands selfishness. If you want to achieve remarkable success, you need to break rules, you need to have relations, you need to find shortcuts..which is possible if you are empowered with money….some may differ on this, they will claim that they have succeeded through honest hardwork…this is really appreciable..but just notice, I have used ‘remarkable’ success in that sentence…and I am sure if the succeeded persons are at some position now, they would have reached still higher if they were a part of transparent system ! No wonder we find lots of undeserving people at the positions where they are not expected to be !!

I think students are the direct victims of corruption, because this is the stage where the consequences have direct impact on the future functional population of the nation. This stage decides how the genuine talent will be used in development of the country..Or it will be wasted due to fatal corruption to prefer a rich nondeserving!!

So as you might have guessed, this is related to India against corruption! This is not new for us…at some or the other point we had faced consequences of it. And we were helpless; we could not do anything apart from cursing the system, only to face further consequences in the future. Remember this point “WE WERE HELPLESS, WE COULD NOT DO ANYTHING APART FROM CURSING THE SYSTEM” !!

The problem all these years was lack of such a figure to lead mass movement against unchecked corruption ! As I already said, it’s hard to have such unselfish men (like those in the past) to lead this most needed movement, even they are honest..It’s even harder that all of the population will believe their honesty and their motives…so there will always be significant lack of support. Corruption is prevailing, just because of lack of counter attack. It’s a vicious cycle..In which power of these corrupt people is growing and most important, it is transferable to their progeny, keeping in mind, the fact that a politician produces a politician son and rich father produces rich son…corrupt mentality is a gift to their progeny…and the resources are provided in the form of money and political power... look at the govt.’s lokpal…All the "MPs" will not be covered under it...Means what?? They are the only suckers.. MPs, in my area, which are like rodents... Just look at major scams in recent times..Can you imagine, these would not be covered by govt’s lokpal !!

Attempts have been made since 1980s to check abuse of political power !! Right to information act is classic example. Anna hazare was trying for it since 90s, and succeeded in bringing it to action. Why few people are not in favor of strong lokpal…?? At the age of 60-70, these people have not much time left to show their corruptive power, but they want to make sure that, their set up for their progeny should not be under the scrutiny. I won’t request you to support the movement, because I have explained you something..I know people are intelligent, and they can comprehend this issue…I am just clearing up the things. I have gone through both versions of lokpal…and I know even minor who had faced corruption at basic levels would support Anna’s version (as everybody is supporting).

Now there are two issues..First: few people think that, it would be an insult of parliament. How can few people make law outside the parliament??..Remember that point “WE WERE HELPLESS, WE COULD NOT DO ANYTHING APART FROM CURSING THE SYSTEM”.. Remember that even this version of lokpal was drafted only after Anna’s fast…that means they would have done nothing, if Anna wouldn’t have initiated the movement. It’s like, if someone is robbing our property or insulting our ladies ,then we should not do anything, because we are not police…is it like that?? This is no way an unlawful act…they are not making any law against society..they have majority on their side…if few people have problem because of this issue, then they should carry out legal procedure, accept the people’s lokpal and make the laws in parliament itself…so issue is only to bringing the people’s lokpal, they are not willing to show their power…they are least bothered about the way how it is brought…they simply want to bring it…

Second issue is, why should people trust Anna and his team ?? Giving full respect to people’s intelligence and their suspicious nature…I am not asking them to trust team Anna !! I am asking them to support for a cause ! Why the people are not able to see forward?? Just consider the end result…a strong lokpal will be in action because of their huge support…no matter who was leading the protest ! If they still has an issue with it, then it means that they have issue with the lokpal itself…in that case they should themselves go through the drafts..And I am sure, there will be no need to make their minds, they will be convinced with that !!

At the end, I am from Maharashtra, and have been witnessing Anna’s work since childhood...There’s no doubt about honesty of this man...Few people if have problem with this man, please consider the CAUSE only, its transparent and exactly the most needed thing...At least the team Anna has all the intelligent heads, who were class 1 officers..You can go through Anna’s work on Wikipedia..And if you think wiki is user edited, then check govt. website regarding history of right to information act !!
So I kindly request every citizen to support the movement (if not Anna) on august 16th, 2011…student’s union has vital role to play …youth of India should take this seriously…jai hind !!
Thanks !!

Being a professor at medical college

View me on Instagram

In maharashtra, People who have done md medicine are paid Rs. 80,000 to 90,000 per month, if they work as assistant professor in any govt. medical college. They are allowed to practice outside also, through which they earn nearly 60 to 80 thousand, simply because most of the patients from general population get used to their names when they interact with the same in medical college.

What the asst. Professor does in medical college is more interesting !
After taking round in wards which takes just 15 to 20 mins or less, they sit in college canteen to enjoy tea for nearly 30 mins, another 30 mins to talk with class 3 ,class 4 workers of the hospital and local so called politicians...This would help to grow their private practice outside...Also by this they have covered nearly 1 and half hour of their OPD hours (which is in total of 3.5 hours and only two days a week)...Now after 1 pm onwards they get busy in their private practice and there are no evening rounds at medical college.

For their amusement they can arrange a half hour clinic or lecture twice a month, if they think so, And can enjoy playing jokes on the medical students, which the students themselves enjoy, surprisingly ! (may be due to all the frustration they face in such scenario)
Dont think that patients are kept waiting for treatment, there is huge army of doctors to treat them. Starting from Interns, H.O.s, diploma students, PG students, registars, lecturers ; so the Asst. Professor is not expected to worry about anything, he is left with the only job of signing some documents or torturing any student for not doing his duties and extending his/her posting. (ofcourse the quality of treatment is compromised)

More interestingly 'Professor and HOD' doesnt need to even visit the medical college for months ! And he is paid Rs. 1,20,000 per month for being on that post. (notable fact is, Interns are paid Rs. 2550 per month for round the clock duty)

People are earning Rs. 2 lakh and more per month through such a cool setup, and particularly some talented surgeons even more (3 to 4 lakhs). This is the truth and i have all the proofs.

To get such kind of job ,you only need to do MD medicine or MD in any clinical branch, and then Pass the required MPSC/UPSC exam. And here also you will be getting all the social rewards.
People why are you after radiodiagnosis , if such an alternative is available?

P.S.: Nothing personal with anyone ! And i know some exceptions are there, who do their job honestly. This applies to everyone who fits in the story.

This is really appreciable, vngmc yavatmal is leading from the front in the protest against govt. of maharashtra,for increasing the interns stipend.
The movement was initiated & intensified at our very own college. Thanks to Ankush Nawale, Gururaj and all the vngmcians, as well as all the interns across the state.
That was needed since long, but alas, we couldnt do it. 2004 batch had succeeded in raising it by little margin of Rs. 800, the response which was more likely an insult rather than sympathy. But they had no other choice than accepting it.
In a while, they and our college would be featuring in leading newspapers and why not, they deserve it.
Interns all over the state would get benefits from this, including the interns who, buy time (by avoiding postings) to prepare for pg entrance, for them this money would be very useful to buy that precious time. That seems practical enough, even if the same people support INDIA AGAINST CORRUPTION, ultimately they have to be practical and thats what is the need of time. Opinions may vary. Generally opinions came from the situation (of the person) and not by person itself , so its not good to measure anyone in terms of right or wrong. People have their own choice, but the bottom line is, since i have gone through the hectic internship in this college (svngmc yavatmal), let me dare to say, No one deserve better than the interns here, to initiate such a movement and to get such a stipend of Rs. 10000+ per month (if it happens)
congratulations Svngmc.
