J&K medical interns to withdraw services from today

Srinagar, Aug 30:After years of waiting and scores of representations, and despite a government committee recommending an increase, medical interns have been pushed to wall to start a strike from August 31. MBBS and BDS interns across J&K are set to begin an indefinite strike from Monday, August 31, withdrawing their services from all hospitals. They are demanding revision of their monthly stipend from the existing Rs 12,300 to Rs 30,000. The strike is the latest escalation in an unmet demand that has dragged on for nearly seven years. The stipend has remained virtually frozen while they say their workload and living costs have continued to rise. A committee constituted by the government had recommended an increase in the internship stipend to Rs 26,350 per month. However, despite the recommendation, a formal order implementing the hike has not materialised. The file and the issue was shuttled between the concerned departments. The interns have alleged prolonged administrative inaction. The young doctors performing duties in government hospitals continue to receive Rs 12,300 a month. The amount. interns and doctors' associations say is grossly inadequate to meet their most basic expenses like travel for work and food. Interns are routinely posted in emergency departments, wards, operation theatres and other clinical areas. They assist in patient care and work long and night shifts. The resident doctors' associations have also backed the demand and pointing to the role interns play in emergency units, inpatient wards, intensive-care facilities. They are also a crucial part of OPDs. The gap becomes starker when J&K's stipend is compared with several other states and institutions. Recent comparisons cited by doctors put internship stipends at around Rs 30,000 in Karnataka and central institutions and AIIMS, around Rs 28,892 in West Bengal and around Rs 31,500 in Assam. Uttar Pradesh has recently approved an increase to Rs 25,000 for MBBS and BDS interns. Now the interns in J&K have announced that they are left with no option but to stop work. A senior faculty at GMC Srinagar said its always desirable to enhance stipend annually based on incremental rise of 5 to 6 percent. This is similar to DA to permanent employees, and towards equitable norms. In June, the J&K Medical Students Association urged the government to revise the stipend and bring it closer to central government norms. J&K Medical Students Association had also highlighted how interns at Government Medical College Anantnag allegedly faced disciplinary action while raising concerns over stipend. The Resident Doctors' Association at GMC Srinagar and associated hospitals has extended solidarity to the interns. They have called the demand for Rs 30,000 stipend legitimate and urged the authorities to take immediate steps towards a settlement. Many other doctors' bodies have also voiced their support.

UP T20 League Provides Ideal Bridge To IPL, Says Kashi Rudras Skipper Karan Sharma

Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy: Kashi Rudras captain Karan Sharma feels the UPT20 league has given the states cricketers an unprecedented platform which provides them with crucial match-time and exposure in order to make the cut for big tournaments like the Indian Premier League (IPL). Sharma, who has experience in the IPL ecosystem via spending IPL 2022 and 2023 seasons with Lucknow Super Giants, is amongst those players from the state who have made the cut in heaps for the ten-team league. Absolutely. I extend my gratitude to UPCA and Rajeev Shukla sir. They took an initiative to bring UP T20 to reality because as a player, you need an opportunity and platform to showcase your talent or the skills and hard work you have put in so far. So, it was a thorough process. Like when you came, trials happened. Then you got a chance to play in the state for Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy. When you do well there, then you get picked in the IPL. But now when UP T20 league comes, every player has got 10 live matches, which are enough in quantity to showcase your talent, calibre and capability. UP has a lot of talent and through this, they got an opportunity in which they can show everything about themselves game wise. So, there is no better opportunity than 10 live matches and I think this has been a good initiative, Sharma told IANS in an exclusive conversation on the sidelines of the league from Kanpur. Crediting the Uttar Pradesh Cricket Association (UPCA) for creating a solid structural framework, which is now enhanced by the UP T20 league, Sharma, who hails from Ghaziabad, noted that match-readiness is key for players aiming for higher levels and that the state setup avoids selecting players solely based on net sessions. It has always been good. I never felt that bias towards me. But it is fun thanks to the ecosystem that has been made. I feel that it is a very fair ecosystem because before you play for any board, you get around 8 or 10 matches in which you can show yourself that you deserve that chance in the team or not. So if you ask me as a player, UP has made a very good ecosystem for everything. Every player needs an opportunity and here, this is a clear opportunity for you to show yourself, and express yourself. So it is fun to go and show yourself, to express yourself because sometimes it happens that there are many places where they make a team only from the nets. You don't get a chance then to show yourself as you don't expect that from seeing the nets, what kind of player he will be. When that match comes, you get an opportunity, and only then you know how well that player will perform or not. Before the UP T20 league, the matches of our district were there. Then there are trial matches and games in the camp. So I think a player has played 8-10 matches until he goes to the senior team and plays for UP, whether its age or senior cricket. Until then, he remains ready and its a very good ecosystem, he explained. Reflecting on his time of playing in the IPL and now plying his trade in the UP T20 league, which began in 2023, Sharma stated, It was a very good experience. Obviously, when you are in the IPL, there is a different kind of vibe. There is a different atmosphere and you enjoy it. The first time, I was enjoying it a lot. The players whom I saw on TV, I was playing and sharing the dressing room with them. When that match comes, you get an opportunity, and only then you know how well that player will perform or not. Before the UP T20 league, the matches of our district were there. Then there are trial matches and games in the camp. So I think a player has played 8-10 matches until he goes to the senior team and plays for UP, whether its age or senior cricket. Until then, he remains ready and its a very good ecosystem, he explained. Also Read: Special Cricket Stories So, you get mentally trained to tackle that situation. When you are playing in the IPL or for India, I think it trains you on how to play in that pressure and situation. So its almost good, as you get same kind of situations and both the tournaments are fun to play in, he signed off. Article Source: IANS
