It was out of my cousin’s
compulsion, I have decided to turn on the tv and watch Satyameva Jayate, an
initiative from the brilliant actor Aamir Khan. I have seen the promos many a
times before, but have never taken efforts, rather spent time to watch the programme.
The topic of narrative for the day was the Indian medical/health scenario and
the nowadays predicaments resulting from the money-oriented attitude of
hitherto-called human gods-Doctors!!!
The stories unfolded by the
veteran actor were just dreadful. The words from the ones who had lost their
beloved ones for the mere sake of negligence and profit-motive intents of
doctors were heart flouting..
Who is the ultimate loser when
a doctor washes his hands and gives a say, “we have tried our level best, but,
sorry!!!!”
Who is the real victim when
the hospital-in-charge hesitantly utters, “We can’t proceed with the operation
unless the bills are cleared!!!”
Who is the absolute prey when
the hospital doors are closed with a key note, “No admission for the ones who
do not have a sound financial position!!!!”
Yes, this is the true picture
of Indian Medical Service sector!!!!
The fact is,
The ones who ought to be the
care takers have transformed themselves into currency makers!!!!
The ones who ought to render
services for the human have tainted themselves into real blood haunts!!!!
The Survey reports and
statistics depicted in the programme were shocking!!!
Hundreds of women of a rural,
backward area had to undergo surgery to remove their uterus’ simply for the
reason that they were made petrified saying that unless they undergo the
surgery, they hardly can survive their lives!!!!!
What else can induce them into
such a wild trap?????
The instances are never
ending..
Every second, one has to
succumb to death merely because of the reckless attitude shown by the so called
human gods-Doctors!!!!
The above picture is an
exclusive one of our “Bharath Mahaan”!!!
The portrait of other nations
are far better and pleasing..
We acclaim ourselves to be the
fastest developing nation!!!
We make proclamations that we
strive to be a Super Power by 2020!!!
We entail in day long
discussions and sign treaties with our neighbour countries!!!
But..
What is the use of being a
Super Power unless we have populace with sound health???
What is the meaning of
declaring ourselves as an unbeatable democratic state unless we have natives
with a sense of security on their lives???
This is a request to my
friends who are taking up lessons on medicine..
Those who are in the verge of
becoming a doctor/medical practitioner..
Please do keep in mind that
the profession you work towards , is a divine one!!!
Which should be practiced with
utmost dedication, commitment and service-motive mind sets!!!
The ethics you ought to clutch
should never be indulged for the sake of fulfilling private goals!!!
HOPE WE HAVE A TOMORROW WHERE
THE WHITE ANGELS LIVE UPTO OUR DREAMS..
WITH,
PEACE IN THEIR MINDS..
CARE IN THEIR EYES..
AND, DIVINITY IN THEIR
SOULS!!!
P.S : Thanks to Satyameva
Jayate for invoking thoughts in me.
Thanks to Aamir for taking up this
wonderful job.
SATYAMEVA JAYATE..!!!!
We have to push in for health sector reforms! We need to have a functioning regulator and a proactive ethics and vigilance committee. Kudos Aamir!
