Yes, rural internship is a compulsory part of the MBBS program. It gives students real exposure to community healthcare and rural medical practices. Platforms like The Learn Skills also help learners enhance practical and professional skills needed during such internships.

Rural internship should be focused in developing the medical facilities in the rural areas apart from treating people.

The Compulsory Rotatory Residential Internship (CRRI) programme is a 12-month programme in hospitals attached to the medical college of the students. The NEET MBBS internship is essential for the completion of the MBBS course. For BDS students, the CRRI is provided by the Dental Council of India.

It's up to each individual to do the internship in rural areas or other places. But Indian villages are far behind in the overall development of the country. People are poor, education is less and medical facility is minimum. So definitely India needs more health professionals who is willing to work

Hi Harender ji,
To give it a more balanced view, i feel the duration of the internship be made 6 months as compulsory and rest 6 months based on the students interest and also rural internship should be be focused in developing the medical facilities in the rural areas apart from treating people

Hi Everyone,
I am in favor of rural internship because if we want India to grow as a country, people living in rural area should be healthy because still maximum population of India resides in villages.

Hi,
I believe, rural internship should be made compulsory because once the doctor gets a job, he is least interested in visiting rural areas , only very few doctors take initiative and go to villages.
If the rural internship is made compulsory, it will definitely benefit people living in the rura

I agree with your view point Prachi. People living in the rural areas are deprived of the basic health services and this is a very good initiative to make health services available to the masses

It should be start but should not apply it as compulsory, it will help poor people in respect of health issue, it will not only increase their living standard it will also increase GDP of the nation, man power in nation and also job opportunity. but making it compulsory may create some issues, crime

Well said harender, it should not be made compulsory and should be left on the discretion of the student
