Doctors’ Safety Cannot Be Compromised! Despite assurances, security remains inadequate at Maharshi Valmiki Hospital. Car entered through open gates & rammed into Emergency Corridor ramp. We urge @gupta_rekha @drpankajbjp for immediate action to ensure safety. Letter from RDA :

FORDA requests DGHS, Delhi to issue notification permitting voluntary extension of tenure for outgoing PG doctors (Batch 2023-26) until the new PG batch joins, in view of delays in NEET PG counselling. This will ensure continuity of patient care. @ANI @PTI_News @ians_india

A heartfelt thank you to @FordaIndia for standing firmly with the resident doctors of Uttarakhand and taking our collective fight for fair stipends directly to the Hon’ble Chief Minister. 🩺✊ ​Under the resolute leadership of Dr. Abhijeet Rathi (President, Doon RDA) and the entire dedicated team, our legitimate struggle has gained national backing. ​As highlighted by FORDA, the steep fee structure alongside the glaring interstate disparity-where states like UP and Chandigarh provide over ₹1.10L–₹1.20L while Uttarakhand lags behind at just ~₹69,820-demands immediate rectification. ​We urge the Government of Uttarakhand to hear the unified voice of its frontline healers. ​• Acknowledge the tireless 24×7 service of resident doctors • Address the severe interstate stipend disparity • Implement a minimum stipend of ₹1,00,000/month without delay ​Hon'ble CM Shri @pushkardhami ji & @ukcmo please respond to this appeal and deliver justice to Uttarakhand’s medical workforce! ​#ThankYouFORDA #DoonRDA #StipendHikeNow #UttarakhandPGResidents #FairStipend #OneNationOneStipend #DoctorsUnited @Uttarakhand_News @ChandMo72832254 @drabhijeetRathi @SonakarDr @AashnaPant1

FORDA urges Hon’ble CM @pushkardhami & HM @SubodhUniyal1 to urgently revise the Stipend of MD/MS Resident Doctors. Uttarakhand PG residents perform critical clinical, emergency, ICU, academic & research duties, yet receive among the lowest stipends. @ANI @PTI_News @ians_india

🚨 Major NMC Update for Doctors 🚨 NMC has proposed important amendments to the Registration of Medical Practitioners & Licence to Practice Medicine Regulations, 2023: 🔹 One Registration, Nationwide Practice: Once registered with an SMC and allotted an NMR UID, a doctor can practice across India without fresh registration/licence in every State/UT. 🔹 Unified Registration Portal: Registration + licence applications through the EMRB/NMC unified portal. 🔹 National Medical Register (NMR): UID-based national registry with automatic synchronization with State Medical Registers. 🔹 Greater Transparency: Active/inactive licence status + disciplinary actions, suspension, removal & restoration orders to be reflected in the NMR. 🔹 5-year Licence: Licence remains valid for 5 years; failure to renew within 3 months after expiry → “inactive” status and no practice. 🔹 Misconduct/Negligence: SMC in whose territorial jurisdiction the cause of action occurred will have jurisdiction to inquire into the matter. 🔹 Appeal Mechanism: Rejection of registration/licence can be appealed to EMRB within 30 days; EMRB decision is binding on the SMC. 🔹 FMGs: Draft specifically recognises FMGE (until NExT comes into force) for provisional registration/NMR registration, subject to applicable regulations. 🔹 Foreign Doctors: Temporary registration for foreign nationals undergoing PG/Super-specialty training may extend up to 24 months, followed by a 1-year cooling-off period. Important: These are DRAFT regulations, not the final rules. NMC has invited objections/suggestions for 30 days. @FordaIndia #NMC #MedicalRegistration #Doctors #MedicalEducation #Healthcare #NMR #FMG

FORDA stands in unwavering solidarity with the doctors of Maharashtra. 5.5 YEARS of rigorous MBBS training, followed by internship and supervised clinical responsibility, cannot be equated with a 6-MONTH certificate course. Patient safety demands competence—not shortcuts. Medical practice is earned through years of training, not granted in months. @FordaIndia #StandWithMaharashtraDoctors #FORDA #StopMixopathy #MBBS #MedTwitter

Delhi: On NEET-UG counselling, FORDA National General Secretary Dr. Meet Ghonia says, "The Union Health Ministry has introduced reforms under NEET-UG, under which the admission process for MBBS, BDS, Homeopathy, Ayurveda and other undergraduate courses will now be conducted through centralised, merit-based counselling. The Medical Counselling Committee (MCC), which handles counselling for NEET-UG, NEET-PG and NEET-SS, has issued a new direction under which candidates will have to complete one-time registration for admission to any course. After that, even if their seat is upgraded in subsequent rounds, they will not have to visit physically for verification after every round..." (30.07)

VIDEO | Delhi: On NEET-UG Counselling 2026 reforms, FORDA (Federation of Resident Doctors' Association) National General Secretary Dr Meet Ghonia says, "...The government has introduced important reforms, which is a welcome step. Until now, the counselling process generally consisted of three rounds, with a mop-up round conducted in some cases. Students often had to travel from one state to another for physical reporting in every round, which caused considerable inconvenience. Now, there will be one-time physical reporting, and any subsequent reporting can be done online through a mobile phone or laptop from home. Document verification can also be completed online..."

NEET-UG counseling: Introduction of a one-time physical reporting framework, significantly reducing the need for repeated visits by candidates @FordaIndia @MoHFW_INDIA #NEET #reforms
#WATCH | Delhi | On the NEET-UG counseling reforms, Federation of Resident Doctors Association National General Secretary Dr Meet Ghonia says, “3-4 reforms were introduced, many of which hadn't been implemented previously but are being put into effect this year. First, consider that while 20 lakh students took the exam, around 10 to 12 lakh will participate in the counseling. Previously, students had to undergo physical reporting multiple times across the various stages… However, the Union Health Minister has now decided to implement a "one-time" system for physical reporting and document verification. This single verification process remains valid throughout the counseling stages; even if you secure admission in a different city or state during the final round, the verification completed earlier will still be accepted there. Secondly, a "one-time registration" system has been introduced for all counseling processes. Whether you are seeking admission to MBBS, BDS, or any other course, the counseling process for the Union Government's 50% All India Quota remains unified, allowing you to proceed with your admission through this single registration."
