Brief History
HCMS Association is about 35 years old but it got registered in 1986-87 after that funds were raised through Life Membership and in 1990-91 Ass. followed the path of agitation under the leadership of Dr D. P. Bansal forcing the Govt. to give class I status &many other demands. In 1994 at Kurukshetra convention Dr. Subhash Sharma President at that time declared single shift in the presence of Health Minister and Health commissioner against the wishes of Govt.
In January 1998 there was a huge gathering in Karnal Convention and lot of enthusiasm leading to decisions for agitation which were changed by executive committee violating the constitution of Association that led to so much so loss of strength and moral of association gone down and down.
In last 5-6 years there had been further loss of communication (Intra-district as well as inter-district) . Conventions were delayed every year as no branch opted for its hosting on the ground of thinking that association is not doing anything (In reality not much has been done to strengthen the association) not ever reasons for loss of communication were searched.

STRENGTHENING THE FUTURE OF ASSOCIATION
One of the reasons was shortage of funds. All of us know no organization can run without sufficient funds. At present association has FD of 7.5 lac even if all doctors become members maximum amount will be 10 to 11 lac yielding 60000 to 66000 per year. If ten meetings are held in one year Rs. 50000 will be spent in food & other arrangements and rest of the money will hardly suffice the expenditure of State office bearers (TA & tel etc)
Come on let us strengthen the Association once again as all of us know that everybody needs a strong Association to protect their rights and avoid any victimization.
What a member can do to strengthen the association : -
i) Become member ( Both life as well as Benevolent fund ) Benevolent fund should not be looked as one's insurance but it is to show professional brotherhood sharing the sorrow of our collogues' family
ii) Attend all meetings (should not think nothing is going to happen or one will come to know what happened in the meeting ) When all members are present in the meetings it gives the feeling of strength to each other
What Distt. Branches can do to strengthen the association : -
Hold regular meetings fixing the time of meetings, inform all members in writing the happenings of executive meetings , date time & venue of Distt. meetings.
Increase funds by collections from members , donations and be financially independent as T. A. of Distt. office bearers is to be born by Distt. branches.
What Central executive can do to strengthen the association : -
Hold regular meetings , try to find the causes of absent branches & do the needful to make all Distt. branches to attend all meetings.
Respect the constitution of association as all of us know indiscipline in any organization leads to its weakening.
Discussions in the meetings be taken in a healthy way and not as personnel as all of us know difference of opinion is always there in an intelligent class. All of us should be totally democrat while working in association.
