Dubai/Trivandrum/ New Delhi: Even as private medical colleges in India have earned notoriety for preferring money to merit, there is one DM WIMS which showed exceptional gesture by shunning money.
This medical college of Aster DM Healthcare in Wayanadu in Kerala let go 15 crore of rupees to facilitate admission of 50 meritorious students in MBBS course indicating that its avowed aim is to produce good quality doctors rather than minting money and promoting mediocrity. It is when this newly established college is running at a huge loss.
It is quite in keeping with culture of quality and compassion that permeates the entire ecosystem of its hospitals, medical colleges and pharmacies. Lure of lucre has never been the intent of Dr. Azad Moopen, the benign Keralite NRI health honcho in Dubai. The fresh gesture of missing money for merit speaks a volume about his core values.
The college said tears of joy in the eyes of the students more than compensated for the missed money.
