Demand revocation of GO 155 relating to in-service quota
Representatives of the Telangana Junior Doctors Association (TJUDA) have threatened to boycott duties from Friday demanding the revocation of GO 155 relating to in-service quota. Protests against the quota were held at major government medical colleges in the State on Monday.
As per the quota, 20% of seats in post-graduate (PG) clinical broad specialities, 30% of seats in PG pre and para clinical specialities for degree and diploma courses are reserved for in-service candidates in government medical colleges.
Students pursuing MBBS and PG courses are known as junior doctors while medical officers who work at Primary Health Centres (PHCs) are in-service candidates. Medical officers who work at PHCs for two years in tribal localities, or three years in rural localities are eligible for the in-service quota.
