It is the first step in preparing a cadre of experts dealing in emergency medicine, which is crucial in cases of serious injuries. Doctors say that the golden hour, after a major incident, is highly crucial in saving lives.

"In a bid to improve the emergency services in India, we have designed a course in MD in Emergency Medicine that will deal with saving life of patients in emergency including brain stroke, heart stroke, vaginal bleed, ENT, radiation or anything that demands immediate response," assistant professor, Division of Emergency Medicine and Trauma, Dr Sanjiv Bhoi said.

"The need of specialisation arises as the doctor manning the emergency unit is generally a simple MBBS who is not specialised in any particular discipline. He should be skilled enough to tackle all the emergencies and not end up calling cardiologist, neurologist or orthopaedic thereby wasting the golden hour. Having skills in tackling emergency medicine will not only improve the survival rate of the patients but also result in lesser damage to the affected organ," Dr Bhoi added.

The US has experts in emergency medicine from the past 25 years, UK and Australia have it from 15 years. The first session will start from January and any doctor can apply for it. The AIIMS has designed the course in collaboration with the University of South Florida.

The CBSE launched the system last year in Delhi region on a trial basis. Encouraged by response in Delhi, the CBSE has sent circulars to its all regional offices including its office in Allahabad to prepare the software as per the guidelines.

"Last year, we introduced the online registration system in class IX in Delhi region on a trial basis which succeeded. This year the system would be extended to all our regional offices and would also cover class XI," said a senior officer of the Board, New Delhi while talking to The Indian Express.

"The online submission of the data of List of Candidates (LOC) for Class X and XII students was introduced last year in Delhi region. This will ensure accuracy and timely receipt of student information. For entering the data, the CBSE allotted a user name and password to all its schools. After the online registration, it is mandatory for school principals to send the signed printout of the LOC to the Board's respective regional offices," said Rajveer Singh, the regional officer of the CBSE, Allahabad region.
