Ghaziabad, July 31 (IANS) Hospitals, clinics, nursing homes and other health facilities remained closed, here on Wednesday, to show solidarity with the Indian Medical Association's (IMA) call against the National Medical Commission Bill (NMCB) 2019.
The Bill was passed by the Lok Sabha recently.
Ghaziabad IMA president Dr D.P. Singh told the media the NMCB, if made into law, would cost dear to patients and downgrade the quality of medical profession.
The Bill proposes to extend reservation to private medical colleges, and will allow pharmacists, para-medics and nursing staff to prescribe medicine.
Nearly 100 doctors, including the IMA state president Dr Rajiv Goel were present during the press conference at IMA Bhawan in the Raj Nagar locality of Ghaziabad.
