The Indian Medical Association (IMA) is a national voluntary organisation of Doctors of Modern Scientific System of Medicine in India, which looks or cares after the interest of doctors or the well being of the community at large. It was established in 1928 as the All India Medical Association, renamed "Indian Medical Association" in 1930. It is a society registered under The Societies Act of India.
Background
With over 305,458 member doctors through more than 1,700 active local branches in 29 States and Union Territories in India, it is the largest association of physicians and medical students in India.
It is headquartered in Calcutta (Kolkata). The general control management and direction of the policy of the Association is vested in the 'Central Council' to which local branches send representatives and which meets once a year to lay down policies. It delegates its powers to a Working Committee (A representative body of all state Branches) for implementation of programmes and activities. This committee meets at least three times a year to execute various activities for welfare of members and the people in matters of health.
The Indian Medical association is a founder member of the World Medical Association.
Surgeon Dr J.A Jayalal took charge as a national president of the Indian Medical Association (IMA) for the year 2020-2021.
