National Doctor’s Day 2025
“Happy Doctor’s Day! Thank you for your unwavering dedication, compassion, and commitment to healing and saving lives”
National Doctors Day in India has its origins way back in 1991 when the Indian government formally announced July 1st as Doctors Day. This is the day when Dr. Bidhan Chandra Roy, a renowned doctor and prominent personality in India’s medical and political affairs, was born and died. Dr. Roy played a pioneering role in establishing the Indian Medical Association (IMA) and medical colleges and hospitals in India.
RajaRajeswari Medical College & Hospital celebrated Doctors’ Day on 24th July 2025 at Kadamba Hall with great pride and enthusiasm. The event was honored by the presence of our Founder Chancellor, Dr. A.C. Shanmugham, and Chief Guest Dr. H.D. Ranganth, MLA of Kunigal Constituency.
The program commenced with a warm welcome by Dean Dr. Sathyamurthy, followed by the traditional lighting of the lamp. Dr. A.C. Shanmugham delivered an inspiring address, emphasizing the vital role of doctors in society and applauding their selfless service to humanity. Chief Guest Dr. H.D. Ranganth shared his heartfelt appreciation for the medical profession, drawing from his personal experiences and deep respect for healthcare workers.
