Khyber Medical College de-recognition by PMDC
Peshawar: Khyber Medical College (KMC) principal Prof Dr Fazle Ahmad Thursday
made a passionate appeal to the provincial government to save the institution
from being de-recognised by the Pakistan Medical and Dental Council (PMDC) as
its teachers were rapidly leaving the college owing to a host of
problems.
"We may suffer a huge loss in case the PMDC de-recognises this
prestigious institution," Dr Fazle Ahmad said while speaking at the oath-taking
ceremony of Khyber Medical College Teachers Association (KMCTA) on the premises
of the college here.
While highlighting the problems faced by the college
and its teachers, he had to leave his speech incomplete when he lost control
over his emotions and broke down. He said the KMC proved to be a sign of
prestige for the NWFP as it has produced around 8,500 graduates, who are serving
now in every nook and corner of the world. But it was passing through the
critical stage of its history as the teachers were leaving it due to poor salary
package and long pending issue of their promotion or up-gradation after the
promulgation of the Khyber Medical University (KMU) Act.
Like rest of the
college teaching staff, Prof Dr Fazle Ahmad was seriously worried about the
future of the institution particularly when senior teachers started quitting
their jobs and joined private medical institutions on high salaries and other
perks and privileges.
"For God's sake, help us and save this great
institution from being de-recognised," he appealed to the provincial health
minister and left the rostrum, as he could not continue further.
Later,
NWFP health minister Zahir Ali Shah, who arrived almost 45 minutes late of the
schedule and made senior doctors and teachers of the college wait, in his speech
assured the concerned doctors of his full support in resolving their genuine
problems.
"It was and it should be the great learning institution of our
province. The KMU Act which created some problems in terms of doctors' promotion
needed to be amended," the minister said and added that they would save the
premier medical college at all costs.
The minister said he completed
homework on health sector and told the doctors they would soon hear good news.
The minister, however, said he was not happy with the way the doctors deal their
patients. He said during his recent visits, he found that except Ayub Teaching
Hospital, Abbottabad, all the tertiary hospitals, including Lady Reading
Hospital (LRH), Khyber Teaching Hospital (KTH) and Hayatabad Medical Complex
(HMC) were in bad condition and they have almost failed to cope with patients'
burden.

collaborative steps being taken to improve the standard of education and
expressed the hope that livestock and animal husbandry sector would become a
major player in the national economy.

through collaborative efforts, much needed improvement would be taken
place.
