Title: Need to allow eligible doctors (Radiotherapists) from Kolkata University to study D.M. Medical Oncology at AIIMS New Delhi *DR. RATNA DE (HOOGHLY): It has been brought to my notice by some members of my fraternity in Kolkata that after passing M.D. Radiotherapy from Kolkata University they are not allowed to study D.M. Medical Oncology in AIIMS, New Delhi whereas they are allowed to do so in Tata Memorial Hospital Mumbai. M.D. Radiotherapy of Kolkata University is recognised by Medical Council of India. Many Doctors of Kolkata prefer to study in AIIMS, New Delhi rather than in T.M.H. Mumbai. Respected Madam, through you, I request the Hon’ble Health Minister to take initiative so that the doctors who have passed radiotherapy from Kolkata University may study D.M. Medical oncology in AIIMS, New Delhi.
