The Waiting Room

The Waiting Room A page dedicated to the creative flora of Army College of Medical Sciences, New Delhi. For more info, read Notes. We gotta maintain the quality).

The Waiting Room, or as we like to call it, TWR is exactly what it sounds like. Somewhere you can wait for things that actually matter. So when you are waiting for your unrequited love to reply to your message or waiting for the darn video to buffer, what do you do to pass the time? I tell you, you come to The Waiting Room and read intellectually stimulating (oh yeah, literature can be dirty) articles, reviews, memoirs etc etc. You can laugh at our lame jokes, memes, comic strips and for a while feel less pathetic because let’s face it, your crush probably thinks you are a creepy stalker and it’s the free hostel WiFi. But we cater to a much wider audience: if you are stuck in traffic, or travelling in a metro, or waiting for your doctor’s appointment (or your patient’s appointment), or you are just plain bored. Join the conversation at The Waiting Room and find like-minded people who are even more vella than you!

So you can send us sexually explicit content but we will not post it (teehee); derogatory remarks towards any community will not be tolerated; pictures of mutilation = NO (eww, get a life. Or send it to India TV); and finally, please please, do not make us lose faith in humanity by sending us stupid sh*t.

But we accept content from anybody who is idiotic enough to waste time on something like this (this doesn’t include us of course because we are awesome).

𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐨𝐟𝐭𝐞𝐧 𝐝𝐨 𝐰𝐞 𝐩𝐨𝐬𝐭? Our permanent staff will be posting weekly articles. But, your work will be posted as soon as we screen them (Duh, bitches. There are certain regulations you need to follow as given in the post under NOT TO DO.

Due to our "busy schedule" (Read: unpaid labour work in the hospital), we aren't able to devote our time to write. Because after the work, all we do is go to hostel and sleep.

So, we'd like to invite the students of batches 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019 to become a part of this page as writers/editors/artists.
Inbox us if you are interested.

Happy Holidays! Enjoy!

SAY NO TO NMC BILL.

Explanation:
Excerpt of speech by Shri Jayram Ramesh against the movement of NMC bill in Rajya Sabha.

"The intention of the bill is noble but the content is dangerous."

NOTE: These are actual words said by Shri Ramesh which I have merely summarized for easy accessibility and circulation among those who want to know what is wrong with the bill and why it’s acceptance is facing such outrage by the doctors. I am excluding the political and constitutional aspect of the bill.

Clause 10.1.i.: Supporting β€œprivatization” of medical education.

It says - The bill will frame guidelines for determination of fees and all other charges in respect of 50% of seats in Private Medical Colleges. Out of 76K MBBS seats, 40K are in Govt Medical Colleges and 36K are Private (30K are in Private Medical Colleges(PMCs) and 6K are in Deemed Universities) Today the fees of the PMCs are regulated by the State Govt but this bill will open flood gates for privatization of medical education.
And hence, medical education would no longer be accessible to all, it would be the rich, the people who could pay ridiculously high prices for the seats that would get the seats.
(The irony is, most of these individuals would then go and practice in foreign countries.)

β€œI do not believe in privatization of medical education. Medical education is the responsibility of the state, the govt, it is a constitutional obligation. 75% of the seats are already regulated by the state, then why are you disturbing the regulated seats. And what do these frame guidelines mean?”

Clause 14&15: Exit exam. No proper clarification to the nature of it.
What is this exam? Medical is not Engineering. Engineering final exams are MCQ based but in medicine we need to have clinical knowledge. Only theoretical knowledge won’t be enough and if this exit exam is just MCQ based without any clinical component then what’s the point?

Section 32: Institutionalizing β€œquackery”.
It was not in the bill that was proposed in the standing committee.
This section creates a new cadre of health works, which basically means that anyone who is even slightly related to the medical fraternity including a chemist, compounder, nurse, lab technician, will be allowed to practice modern medicine and would be known as community health provider.

And therefore, this bill should not be passed without amending these clauses.
