Another problem from the government’s side is the figure that the ministry is quoting: 3,000 doctors in three years. If you just divide that, it works out to 1,000 doctors per year of a total of 45,000 graduating doctors in India annually or 2.22 percent of the total number of doctors India produces every year. Instead of focusing on the minority, the government should strengthen the post graduate courses in India, which has increased over the years, but still has a long way to go. Currently, for an MD degree, there are a little less than 5,000 seats across the country.
The ministry should focus on the larger picture, the 97.78 students who stay in India. Incentivize their work and give them benefits for choosing to stay behind instead of penalizing the few who go abroad.
