               The field of pathology has enlarged enormously in the recent past. There is a paucity of PG degree and diplomas in sub specialties/super specialties under the purview of Pathology and facilities for CME programme for practicing pathologists as also to the institutions are inadequate. There is a need for creation of a central body governing various aspects of practice of laboratory.
