I am not even mentioning the necessity of a democratic process of consensus building before issuing such weird, immature statements.<br /> <br /> The IMA has no right to issue &lsquo;withdrawal of esteem&rsquo; rants on behalf of the whole medical fraternity of a country as diverse as India. In fact, I am not sure whether the IMA even carried out a democratic consensus building among its own three lakh plus members before calling the shots on the Lancet.

A Lancet Through India's Consciousness -Shah Alam Khan |
-TheWire.in
The IMA should realise that in a democratic setup, intellectual generosity comes not through jingoism but through persistent criticism, appraisal and reevaluation of government policies on health. The editorial on the current situation in Kashmir, published in the reputed British medical journal the Lancet, has stirred up a hornet’s nest. The journal has been criticised by the Indian Medical Association (IMA) and by the Indian Association of Surgeons, who termed it a ‘unsolicited’ meddling with the internal affairs of India. On a laughable note, in a letter to Dr Richard Horton, editor-in-chief of the Lancet, the IMA has said, “Indian Medical Association on behalf of the medical fraternity of India withdraws the esteem we had for the Lancet” (sic). How appropriate is an organisation in terms of intellectual maturity to ‘withdraw the esteem’ for a journal is something which both the organisation and its members should seriously ponder upon. I am not even mentioning the necessity of a democratic process of consensus building before issuing such weird, immature statements. The IMA has no right to issue ‘withdrawal of esteem’ rants on behalf of the whole medical fraternity of a country as diverse as India. In fact, I am not sure whether the IMA even carried out a democratic consensus building among its own three lakh plus members before calling the shots on the Lancet. Unfortunately, the culture of consensus building in India is rapidly deteriorating and to expect the IMA to be involved in one would be foolhardiness. Please click here to read more. |
