A national level socio-medical voluntary organisation of India, committed to stand by people through disaster, distress and deprivation of health, on the anvil of medical ethics. All these - endless sufferings of the ailing masses, lack of pro-people health policies, absence of empathy for the suffering multitude, gross erosion of the medical ethics evoked deep concern and pain in us, a group of m
edical students, doctors, sisters and other health personnel. Shall we not exert our individual role to transform the situation? Flood, drought, cyclone, earthquake, one epidemic on the heel of an other – are these inevitable? Then who will be the harbingers of medical ethics and values? Can we forget the realisation of the greatest scientist of this era, Albert Einstein, to fulfill the social obligation : “A hundred times everyday I remind myself that my inner and outer life depends on the labours of other men, living and dead, and that I must exert myself in order to give in the same measure as I have received and am still receiving”. Thus emerged the nucleus of Medical Service Centre.
