Suryapet rural doctors seek Community Paramedical Certificates under GO 1274

Hyderabad: Suryapet district rural doctors on Tuesday met TPCC chief Mahesh Kumar Goud and sought issuance of Community Paramedical Certificates under GO No. 1274.

The Rural Doctors Association submitted a memorandum at Gandhi Bhavan and asked the party leadership to revive the stalled certification process. They recalled that during Y S Rajasekhar Reddy’s tenure as Chief Minister, the government introduced structured training for rural practitioners.

Under the government order, authorities planned practical training in 104 and 108 ambulance services. After completing the programme, candidates were to appear for examinations and receive formal certification, the delegation said.

However, the initiative stopped after the sudden demise of Y S Rajasekhar Reddy. As a result, many practitioners continued to serve without official recognition despite partial training.

The association urged Mahesh Kumar Goud to ensure that the government conduct the pending examinations at the earliest. They pressed for early issuance of Community Paramedical Certificates to eligible candidates.

Responding to the memorandum, Mahesh Kumar Goud said he would place the demand before the Chief Minister. He also assured that he would take up the issue with the Health Minister.

Moreover, he said the government would examine the request in consultation with the concerned departments. He added that appropriate steps would follow after review.

TPCC official spokesperson Gyan Sundar attended the meeting. Rural Doctors Association leaders Jeripothula Laxman Goud and Rajender also participated.
