چکیده
Indian Medical Association (IMA) is a well established pan-India voluntary organization of modern medicine doctors. It has a membership of 2.3 lakh doctors spread over 1,600 branches in almost all the districts of India. IMA is reaching to approximately 33 crores of people every month and ensuring affordable & quality treatment. Born in 1928, mainly out of the burning need to organise the medical professionals of the time for the national freedom struggle, IMA eventually reached an agreement with the British Medical Association (BMA), which had opened a few branches in India to cater to the local needs, that they will have no branch in India and got mutually affiliated. This relationship continues till today. This was as a result of the select few stalwarts of the medical professionals in the country at that time. In the year 1946, IMA was one of the founder constituent members of the world body, World Medical Association (WMA). IMA has been and con tinues to play an important role in the deliberations of WMA. In 1966, we hosted the III World Conference on Medical Education under the joint auspices of WMA and IMA in New Delhi followed by the WMA General Assembly in 2009 in the national capital.
