History: HCDS Association
 

Before 1981, The HCDS Association was not in existence. Because the number of Dental Surgeons were a few. It was in 1981, a group of six Dental Surgeons met together at the residence of Dr. L.C. Jindal Dental Surgeon Civil Hospital Ambala Cantt. and formally HCDS Association was formed. Dr. L.C. Jindal was elected as a The President of the HCDS Association and Dr. J.S. Dhatterv was elected as a General Secretary of the HCDS Association. This Association worked for a year and then had gone into disfunction. Then the Govt. Dental Surgeon has raised their voice on the platform of the State Branch of Indian Dental Association till Dec.1988. A Meeting of few Dental Surgeons was held at Civil Hospital, Panipat in March 1989 and Dr. S.K. Jawa was made the President and Dr. V.K. Taneja as General Secretary of the Association. Due to the resignation of Dr. V.K. Taneja. Dr. M.L. Bansal was given the charge of Hony. General Secretary of the Association.


Here the tables were turned in the History of HCDS Association. Dr. M.L.Bansal called a Meeting at General Hospital Mohindergarh in May 1989 and Dr.R.K. Gupta of Bhiwani was elected as the President of the Association. In June
1989, Haryana Govt. has taken a decision in which pay scale & allowances were given to the HCMS Doctors.

I) Initial 2200-4000
ii) After 5 Years Regular Satisfactory Service 3000-4500
iii) After 12 Years of Regular Satisfactory Service 4100-5300
(Limited to 20°/a of Cadre Post)

However Dental Surgeons were left out. Dental Surgeons were getting only 2000-3500 scale without any time scale.


At the name of the Association there were only five Dental Surgeons in a Meeting at Civil Hospital Mohindergarh in June 1989. Only five Doctors namely Dr.G. Singh, Dr. J.N. Verma, Dr. R.K. Gupta, Dr. M.L. Bansal, Dr. R.K. Jam were present. There was no finance with the Association. Even the money for postage was not there. Everybody present in the Meeting was in a depressed mood. Nobody knows what to do? in such a situation, Dr. M.L. Bansal gave them a assurance to do whatever he can do for them. Dr. M.L. Bansal immediately drafted a memorandum and sent to the Honble Chief Minister Govt. of Haryana highlighting the gross injustice was done to Govt.Dental Surgeons while revising the pay scale & allowances to the Govt. Medical Doctors and a copy to Media Personals was given. The Opinion of HCDS Association was widely circulated in almost all Hindi National Dailies



After Pay Scale & Allowances, the Association activities were limited to oniy lunch and General Body Meeting. Not many members were taking any interest in the  Association. The HCMS Association was making calls for strikes for revision of Non Practicing Allowances (NPA). As HCDS Association was not having many members so it was decided to co-operate the HCMS Association in Meeting in  1992 at Karnal. An another Dental Surgeon Dr. S.C. Sharma, met Dr. M.L. Bansal at Mehfil Restaurant Karnal, Dr. M.L. Bansal enrolled him as a new member and  motivated him to do something for the Association. Dr. S.C. Sharma who was never been a member of either IDA or HCDS, suddenly got changed, has started taking keen interest of HCDS Association and in the subsequent meeting he was elected the President of HCDS Association.

In a Gazette Notification of Haryana Govt. vide no. 28/154/89-5HBI dated 09-04-1992 in which only members of Haryana Civil Medical Services-Il  were granted status of Class-I after satisfactory completion of probation period. Dental Surgeons of HCDS Association which are at par with Haryana Civil Medical Services in pay scale & allowances were not included in above mentioned notification.

Now the HCDS Association was having two members i.e. Dr. M.L. Bansal and Dr. S.C. Sharma, who were the Hony. General Secretary & the President of HCDS Association, were active members. Dr. S.C. Sharma who was posted at CHC Nilokheri District Karnal came to HAP Complex Madhuban on 30-04-1992 to meet Dr. M.L. Bansal and discussed the notification of Govt. in which HCMS Doctors were granted Class-I status after two years of service and Dental Surgeons were left out.

A new executive body was constituted  comprising of President Dr. Pawan Dhanwal , Gen. Secretary Dr. Ravish Sharma , Treasurer Dr. Pankaj Shoure, Vice Presidents Dr. Vikram Panghal & Dr. NS Malik with Dr. Daljeetam Singh as advisor in Feb. 2009 .
