Delhi 1-year service bond has been implemented for All India and state quota undergraduate and postgraduate medical students. It requires students to serve in the medical colleges under GNCT of Delhi for a period of one year. The bond policy was introduced by the Delhi government on September 19 last year.
As per the new policy, the MBBS and PG students, including super-specialty, will have to pay Rs 15 lakh and Rs 20 lakh respectively at the time of admission. The amount will be forfeited in case the student decides to opt out of the mandatory service period. This, however, was not received well by aspirants and doctors’ associations.
