HISTORY OF WBADA :
Around 1995 the members of West Bengal Adibasi Medicos’ Association ( WBAMA )who had passed MBBS , felt that adibasi MBBS Doctors of west Bengal need a platform.After that in 1996 during the 15th year Anniversary of WBAMA at Kolkata the proposal to form a Doctors Association for adibasi MBBS Doctors was formally placed. Finally in the year 1999-2000 West Bengal Adibasi Doctors’ Association ( WBADA) was established by Adibasi doctors who were WBAMA members at the time.Therefore WBAMA is the mother organisation of WBADA.

HISTORY OF WBAMA :
West Bengal Adibasi Medicos Association was formed in the year 1981.Since before 1981 some tribal students entered in the medical stream through Joint Entrance Examination. Most of the students were from rural background and therefore faced many problems and difficulties while continuing their studies.There were no connection among themselves. Until one day one of the students wrote a letter to a senior whose name was known by the student, wanting to meet him. Though the hostels were in same area, the junior posted the letter. The letter arrived at the senior’s door and he read it. As soon as he read the letter, the senior rushed to the sender’s room to meet him. And that meeting was a very happy, emotional and memorable moment for both the senior and the junior. After that both decided that they would find and help other tribal students and doctors in medical colleges. Gradually they were successful to make a group of tribal students and doctors. Later they formed West Bengal Adibasi Medicos association and through this association helped all tribal medical students in all aspects e.g. studying, accommodation and some times even financially. The same tradition continues even today.
