President Droupadi Murmu on Tuesday (October 6, 2026) said that the primary objective of the medical profession should be to serve humanity, urging doctors to embrace sensitivity and compassion while striving for excellence in their profession.

She was addressing the first convocation of the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) at Bilaspur in Himachal Pradesh.

Ms. Murmu said the empathy and compassionate behaviour of doctors gives courage to the patient, apart from their knowledge and skills that treat the patient. She said that for the people of the country, AIIMS signifies medical treatment by the nation’s most competent doctors.
