There is an ongoing debate about whether new doctors and new teachers should be forced to work in rural areas or not, in order to help people in villages. Although rural areas deserve advanced medical and educational facilities, I think that professionals should be allowed to work where they feel comfortable.
The primary reason to introduce a policy about serving rural people with new doctors and teachers is significant because professionals are not willing to work in these areas, and if they are directed by the administration to work in villages for a limited period of time, then hospitals and educational institutions would be improved. For instance, in Pakistan, people living in rural areas often demand from the government that doctors and teachers should be employed in these areas to serve local residents, thereby reducing the hardships of local individuals. Hence, it is essential to provide basic facilities to underdeveloped regions of the country.
However, doctors and teachers should not be posted in rural areas against their will, because if they are not comfortable in villages, then they might not serve local people efficiently, which would not facilitate local people effectively. Therefore, governments need to allow them to work freely in their desired area, as they are more likely to serve people better in their chosen places, which would be advantageous not only for their career but also for the country. For example, doctors and teachers can become successful in their fields if they are allowed to work freely because professionals like them can thrive mainly in comfortable environments.
In conclusion, while villages need better basic facilities such as education and healthcare, I think posting doctors and teachers in these areas against their will is not sustainable, as they often become more productive in their desired areas
