March announced towards Islamabad

 

The Young Doctors Association rejected the establishment of the Pakistan Medical Commission and announced a march towards Islamabad.

The Young Doctors Association of Pakistan held a meeting on video link in which the presidents and members of Punjab, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Sindh, Balochistan, Azad Kashmir, Gilgit-Baltistan and Islamabad participated. YDA Pakistan officials said the formation of the Pakistan Medical Commission was also against international law, as licensing bodies around the world were selected by stakeholders. YDA Pakistan also declared illegal the implementation of another NLE exam for obtaining a license for those who pass the MBBS Final Year exam. He said that this examination was tantamount to putting the future of millions of medical graduates at stake. The Young Doctors Association has decided to launch a movement against the implementation of another exam after MBBS. In the first phase, a march towards Islamabad has been announced on October 14. YDA Pakistan also expressed its determination to launch a protest movement in all the provinces in the second phase.
