Since last couple of months seeing the apathy of the Indian PSWs (professional social workers or psychiatric social workers) and various social work associations towards the issues related to the new legislation and implication PSW practice. I was wondering whether anyone would be interested in this or not. But now at least some movement can be seen though direction and impact are still not very clear at least to me which has given me the courage to write on this issue though in my mind these issues were raising since the beginning when I entered in this profession.
