Thats pretty much unfair with us the ppl of all India quota because as per our aipmt module it has been clearly stated that any state ligations will not be applicable for AIQ students but Maharashtra Govt is complying is to serve rural service in maharasthra that is totally wrong !

In an exercise conducted by the directorate of medical education and research (DMER) in January 2017,it was revealed that in a tenure stretching from 2001 to 2011, around 4500 medical graduates managed to skip their rural postings post completion of MBBS.

As per the current rule, a medical graduate is allowed a window period of 6 extra years, so that the student can pursue post graduation and also super specialization and need not appear for rural postings just AFTER completing MBBS. But it has been found out that a lot of students have taken a disadvantage of this relaxation and have escaped rural service in the name of higher education. As such, maharashtra government doesn't have any track record of such people who have managed escaping successfully.

Keeping the above happenings In mind, the medical education secretary has forwarded a proposal to merge MBBS course with 1 year rural postings. This has also received a strong support from the MUHS.

Whether the proposal will become an established rule or not is yet to be declared.

I am a final year student but my seniors from kerala and gujarat who were admitted under all india quota had to complete their rural. As of now, it is compulsory to do your rural and I do not know anyone who has evaded this.
