The Indian Medical Association organizes Doctor’s Day, which is observed on July 1 each year (IMA). The day was originally observed in 1991 as a way to recognize Dr. BC Roy, a former chief minister of Bengal, for his contributions to advancing mankind. He passed away in 1962 after being born on July 1, 1882. He was a well-known liberation fighter and a renowned physician who, on February 4, 1961, also received the Bharat Ratna. The purpose of this holiday is to recognize the efforts and sacrifices made by the medical professionals who save millions of lives every year.
Background
To honor Dr. Bidhan Chandra Roy, who was West Bengal’s chief minister at the time, this day was first commemorated in 1991. He made excellent contributions to the medical field during his career, therefore this day has been set aside in his honor. He was a well-known physician and an advocate for independence. In 1961, he was awarded the Bharat Ratna, the nation’s highest civilian honor.

Doctors are regarded as the most important public servants because of this.
