On this India Today special report, the focus is on the controversial decision to lower the NEET PG percentile and the systemic crisis in Indian medical education. Dr. Sanjeev Bagai, a veteran medical professional, criticises the current examination and admission framework, stating, ‘I think this is a complete Mickey Mouse game happening and it’s a bizarre circus of total absurdity.’ Dr. Bagai highlights the alarming rate of student suicides and dropouts, attributing them to extreme pressure and the ‘lopsided’ distribution of medical colleges. He argues that the reliance on multiple-choice questions and the prevalence of high capitation fees in private institutions are destroying the ‘romance of medicine.’ The discussion also features Dr. Dilip Bhanushali, who addresses the issue of 18,000 vacant postgraduate seats and the financial burden on aspiring specialists. The programme explores the urgent need for merit-based reforms to ensure the quality of healthcare in India remains uncompromised amidst evolving global challenges like Artificial Intelligence.
