Action against docs for skipping govt posting The state government is ready to crack whip on super-specialty doctors, who skip two-year mandatory posting at a government medical institute as per the bond they sign at the time of joining their medical course.

Lala Lajpat Rai Memorial (LLRM) Medical College in Meerut has lodged a first FIR in this connection stating that the candidates concerned violated the bond. Among the 132 candidates from the 2018 super-speciality batch, three didn’t turn up to serve the bond. One of them was supposed to join at Meerut, and the others (one each) at Prayagraj and Lucknow.
