Postgraduate doctors are leaving premier medical institutes, RTI replies show

Right to Information responses reveal that postgraduate doctors have been exiting several premier medical institutes, including various AIIMS campuses and JIPMER. Exit figures have declined at Delhi AIIMS and JIPMER, according to the replies. Several institutes, however, do not maintain consolidated records on counselling and workplace stress. The absence of such data makes it difficult to determine the reasons behind the departures. The findings highlight gaps in how these institutions track and address the well-being of their trainee doctors.
