Imphal, April 16 2022:
China Medical Graduate Parents' Association, Manipur has appealed to Union Minister Dr RK Ranjan to allow medical students of the State who studied medicine in China but have been unable to attend physical classes owing to the pandemic to practice in Indian hospitals.
The co-convener of China Medical Graduate Parents' Association, Manipur, Ngangom Santosh said that a meeting was convened in this regard at the residence of Dr RK Ranjan at Kongba Nandeibam Leikai today.
Following this, he told with The Sangai Express that foreign Nationals had been prohibited from entering China since the beginning of the pandemic.
As a result, more than 130 students who study medicine in Chinese institutions have not attended a single physical class despite being midway through their course, he said.
Stressing on the importance of practical classes in studying medicine he appealed to Dr RK Ranjan to allow these students to practice in Indian clinics/hospitals or arrange for these students to be allowed back into China and their respective colleges/institutions in order to save their career.
Ngangom Santosh added that the MP had given several suggestions and also provided assurance that he will take up appropriate steps in this regard.
