POLITY Vs BUREAUCRACY ruined and continuing to ruin Indian Medical Education. What is the role of JUDICIARY?

EVEN IF GOD GRANTS YOUR WISHES, UNLESS THE PRIEST DECIDES TO TRANSLATE AND PASS ON THE SAME, YOUR WISH WILL NEVER BE GRANTED.

Something similar is going on in Indian Medical Education for over a decade. Politicians come and go, BABUS stay on and on. And no matter how much a POLITICIAN wants to serve the SOCIETY, a BUREACRAT will decide HOW MUCH OF SUCH SERVICE will reach SOCIETY.
BOTH WORKED HAND IN GLOVE TO LOOT THE SOCIETY under GOVERNANCE by UPA 1 AND UPA 2.
Under present Government, under Honbl Pradhan Mantri Modi ji, it appears that POLITY is sincerely trying to uplift STANDARDS, but is meeting RELUCTANCE FROM BUREAUCRACY. 
This thought process is because NO GROUND LEVEL ISSUES PLAGUING INDIAN MEDICAL EDUCATION STANDARDS have been addressed CONCRETELY. THE SAME BABUS in the SAME STATUTORY BODIES are continuing their roles of PRIESTS as a FIRST and often ONLY POINT of CONTACT.

In Indian Medical Education Business, one name is very famous, that is, Dr. Ketan Desai, the President, World Medical Association (WMA) and former President of Medical Council of India (MCI). Every Agent and Ghost Faculty (names in my blogs on PKDIMS), every mushrooming Medical College owner and Principals/ Directors/ Deans and other College Management Official and even a particular MCI inspector, with whom I have interacted over last 15 years have only one name, in their nightmares too, that of Ketan Desai. According to every stakeholder involved in establishment of Medical Colleges, Ketan Desai still runs MCI by proxy via a huge network of Middlemen. Those Colleges who are established for over a decade and those Colleges who do not prefer this Middlemen Business, suffer from arbitrary Assessments and harassments in some form or other. Medical Colleges that pay the numerous MIDDLEMEN manage to pull off seemingly impossible Inspections, but after atleast 3 Inspections, inclusive of Compliance Verifications. And if such multiple Inspections do not throw up a pleasing report, the final order comes from an Honbl. Court, to allow a Medical College to admit Students inspite of various deficiencies pointed out in MCI Assessment reports. Next year the same drama of year round MCI Inspections for a college and final order from court. So here too a nexus operates. And everyone earns in between.

If data of those Colleges, in existence over 10 years, but facing every possible obstacle starting from MCI Inspections to Student Admissions since 2011, after Ketan Desai's release from Jail, are collated and perused, the story will be clear. Every single one of them unwilling to have a truck with the Cabal, are suffering since 2011.

And one group of people are really enjoying this CATFIGHTS over the cake, the LAWYERS/ ADVOCATES who represent these mutually inclusive parties. How many of them are following Hon'ble Pradhan Mantriji vision on elimination of BLACK MONEY and are taking their FEES in DOCUMENTED WHITE MONEY? An Income Tax investigation into every single Lawyer who has handled these cases over the last 5 years is enough to atleast uncover the tip of the iceberg. So much water has flown down the bridge making it impossible to punish those wrongs, that have become part and parcel of Indian Medical Education Business System, and by extension reveal the deep rooted malaise that has stained India's fabric.

Instead of commenting and making noise about DOCTORS' income, the other Societal pillars of DEMOCRACY must first introspect and clean their own dirt. In fact TEACHERS and DOCTORS must be exempt from Income Tax. A TEACHER trains the HUMAN RESOURCES to serve the NATION with DIGNITY and INTEGRITY. A DOCTOR makes sure the NATION stays HEALTHY. The INCOME from a LIFESAVING PROCEDURE in the middle of the night should not be TAXED from a SURGEON, and similarly with all specialities.

Recent Honbl. SC's comments show that judiciary is trying to do something.

But then the spectre of BRIBERY has reached the august chair of the Chief Justice of India (CJI) as per the news report of CNN below, simply reminding one of a certain Altamas Kabir and his Volte- Face on NEET on the last day of his Office.

My blogs on PKDIMS will explain the cycle. Assessment reports of P K Das Institute of Medical Sciences, Kerala, in the Information link on www.mciindia.org will add to the context.

How then does Ketan Desai manage? Who protects him? It is said that undisclosed crores are donated to political parties before Elections. He has the status of a Legend, among his peers, and is said to be like Harshad Mehta and many more, of Indian Medical Education. He has everyone in his pockets and knows how to manipulate the System.

Please check out Ketan Desai's wiki page.

Please check out this blog on a British Medical Journal (BMJ) editorial.

Please see the role of Indian Medical Association (IMA) in all this.

http://ddatta16.blogspot.in/2017/04/indian-medical-association-ima-role.html?m=1

Please see the relationship between the Attorney General of India and the Indian Medical Association (IMA) President and thus by extension, to the great Ketan Desai.

How far the campaign against Ketan Desai is true, I do not know and I am not bothered. What is bothering is, how come no concrete steps are visible, from any Regulatory body, to address ground level issues affecting Indian Medical Faculty.

HOW WILL THE DIGNITY AND STANDARDS OF INDIAN MEDICAL EDUCATION IMPROVE?

See my communications with Medical Council of India (MCI) and Union Ministry of Health and Family Welfare (MoHFW). The Additional P.S to HFM, Shri. O. P. Sharma ji replied that Ministry is looking into the matter of FRAUDS committed by PKDIMS/ NGI during MCI Inspections. Note the date - 31/03/2016. No action taken.

Respected Officials

May I please know the status of 'suitable consideration and necessary action' against PKDIMS and its Principal, Palakkad, Kerala? It is a clear case of fraud. Why, in India, does it happen that if the magnitude of a crime committed is severe, investigation and dispensation of justice is invariably at a snail's pace? And this encourages the vicious cycle of such repeated crimes against the nation.

Respected Sirs

It is for kind reminder that one month has elapsed since 29/03/2016, the day of surprise inspection at PKDIMS, Palakkad, Kerala. Are every irregularity being looked into for the amount of time taken? What action is being taken against Dr. Gopakumaran Kartha, Principal, for presenting fake faculties repeatedly?

The date 27/03/2016 mentioned in previous mail was typographical error.

Respected Sir,

In continuation of my previous mails, PKDIMS, Kerala, still continues to say that MCI inspection is due by 30th April 2016 and after that the surprise inspection on 27/03/2016, MCI Inspectors did not file their report. Why did they not file their report? 
What must be understood by MCI is that Dr. Gopakumaran Kartha, Principal, PKDIMS, Palakkad, Kerala, has repeatedly signed hundreds of fake declaration forms and has misled the authorities. What action is being taken by MCI against him and PKDIMS? He has been saying that adequate setting with crores has been done in Delhi and PKDIMS will escape any action against it.

Respected Sirs,
In continuation of my previous mails from ddatta16@ gmail.com, I wish to bring to your notice that it is claimed by the college authorities of P K Das Institute of Medical Sciences (PKDIMS), Palakkad, Kerala, that the MCI inspection conducted yesterday, ie 27/03/2016, was null and void because they are claiming that MCI itself has a rule that Inspections cannot be held within two days before and after holidays for national or state festivals. In this case they are claiming that the inspection was within 2 days after Easter Sunday. Today they have again intimated Doctors that MCI Inspection will be conducted by 30th April ie 30/04/2016. Please clarify whether the inspection was null and void and in that case why did MCI conduct this inspection within 2 days of Easter? Was it to let the college off the hook by giving them an excuse to win a legal point in local High Court and thus admit students for 2016- 2017 batch, just like WA 1879/2015 in Kerala High Court? Or was it time given to let the college get ready with fake faculty and patients and forged paper work? Is it because MCI wants to avoid applying clause 8 (3)(1) d of 'Establishment of Medical College Rules' on PKDIMS?
Does the MCI realize that because of agents and false faculties, the life of real, full time, honest, hard working and tax paying regular faculties is hell? They cannot plan family functions or outings, they can't plan marriage, they can't plan a family life; basically they are under house arrest. And this is on top of unequal pay, work and service conditions. Pay is credited anytime after 10th of a month and almost upto 25th of a month and in many institutes the salary is usually delayed by a month to three months. And in most of the colleges, the exit clauses are horrific including the process of relieving and receipt of relieving order. Now, is the MCI unaware of all this? Or is it the simple excuse of MCI that such issues are between employer and employee. In that case how can MCI insist on adherence to Minimum Standard Requirements (MSR) for grant of permission to start colleges and admit students? MCI must realise that a guarantee Minimum Service Conditions (MSC) and not creating a dichotomy between MSC and MSR is the only solution to this scourge that is eating into standards of medical education? Or is the rot so deeper and the pockets more deeper that there appears no solution in sight? Being a Registered Medical Practitioner as per MCI rules and owing allegiance to the ethical considerations enshrined in both, the constitution of MCI and of this great nation, being a honest, hard working, tax paying, full time regular medical faculty and being one of those votaries responsible for the landslide change of government in 2014 on the promise of cleaning up the Augean stables, I feel I am entitled to seek the above clarifications as well necessary action from MCI to curb such frauds of medical colleges generating tonnes of black money.

All this dirt has now reached the corridors of the highest Temple of Indian Judiciary, the Hon'ble Supreme Court (SC) of India and the doorsteps of the Chief Justice of India (CJI). Please see the link below.

Through all this, is NATIONALISATION of Indian Medical Education an answer? Please go through this.

http://ddatta16.blogspot.in/2017/05/is-nationalisation-of-all-medical.html?m=1

What should be the direction of reforms in Indian Medical Education?

1. Uniformity in Indian Medical Faculty Parameters

http://ddatta16.blogspot.in/2017/03/ofamos-online-faculty-attendance.html?m=1

2. Reversal of Indian Medical Faculty Numbers which were drastically reduced.
