 MEDICAL COLLEGE, CALCUTTA
The Medical College, Bengal, was founded 150 years ago on the 28th January, 1835, by Lord William Bentinck, the then Governor General of India, "for the education of the Indian youth without exception to creed or caste", as the premier medical institution in the East for learning European Allopathic system of Medicine.
This Medical College owes its genesis to the dedicated service of the "Native Doctors" who were trained up to compounders and dressers as the British could not trust the Ayurveds and Hakims.
The college which started with 50 students and 20 hospital beds 150 years ago is now training up 750 undergraduates and 100 postgraduates and hospital serves 2000 in-patients and 6000 outpatients daily.

 Whither Medical Marijuana? by Lester Grinspoon, MD
By mid-decade, the capacity of marijuana to lower intraocular pressure had been observed, and patients suffering from glaucoma began to experiment with it.(6) As the AIDS epidemic gathered momentum, many patients who suffered HIV-associated weight loss learned that marijuana was the most effective and least toxic treatment for this life-threatening symptom.
Thousands of years of use have demonstrated its medical value; the extensive government-supported effort of the last three decades to establish a sufficient level of toxicity to support the harsh prohibition has instead provided a record of safety that is more compelling than that of most approved medicines.
Government and medical licensing boards would insist on tight restrictions, challenging physicians as though cannabis were a dangerous drug every time it was used for any new patient or purpose.
