Chennai: Chief Minister M K Stalin is likely to call a meeting of all political parties having representation in the State Legislative Assembly to hit common ground against the proposed draft Bill on Postgraduate Medical Education Regulations.
Stalin has written a letter to Union Health Minister opposing the Draft Post Graduate Medical Education Regulations, recently released by the National Medical Commission.
He said that “the draft regulations intend to undermine the role of the States in Post Graduate Medical Education since their role in the admission of students under their own State quota is sought to be unilaterally removed.”
In a letter to Union Health Minister Mansukh Laxmanbhai Mandaviya, a copy of which was released to the media, Stalin said it was unfortunate that such draft regulations had been formulated without a proper understanding of the current predominant role of State governments in this domain.
