Do Not Dilute Medical Education

Delhi high court recently directed MCI(medical council of India) to finalize the curriculum for BACHELOR OF RURAL HEALTH CARE(BRHC) within 6weeks who will practice as physician in rural areas..MCI is opposing the introduction of this course (which is of only 3 and ½ years) in health sector...and yes,this should be opposed..just because there are less number of doctors in rural area,you can not bring a low standard course and subsequently low-standard treatment for rural people...the solution is 'develop good infrastructure in rural hospitals for patient's benefit,try to bring all diagnostic techniques in rural area,increase the salary of medical and paramedical staffs in rural area,increase the seats in existing course of medical education,then there will not be any shortage of doctors in rural area'...otherwise mere introduction of a new 3years course is just going to dilute health sector...then people can also argue about same shortage of engineers,teachers,social workers,lawyers etc etc in rural areas...so bring BACHELOR OF RURAL ENGINEERING(BRE),BACHELOR OF RURAL BUISNESS ADMINISTRATION(BRBA),BACHELOR OF RURAL SOCIAL WORK(BRSW),BACHELOR OF RURAL EDUCATION(BRED)..and the list goes on...and finally rural people are generally less fashion conscious(as urban people say),so lets bring the course BACHELOR OF RURAL FASHION DESIGNING(BRFD):-):-)...now everyone will say that  last few lines sound very funny...so the same logic applies to medical education....so please do not dilute the medical education.
