Hi Shubhada,
Pure Science, be it natural, physical or mathematical is the backbone for research and development. There has been a wide opportunity offered in education and career. Excellent undergraduate and integrated (undergraduate + Masters) courses in various streams of Science are offered by very prestigious and established educational institutions in India, such as IITs, NITs, BITS, IISc, IISERs, to name a few.
Graduates in Pure Science have multiple options:
After the completion of the course, one can go for higher studies
Since pure Science is gaining popularity educational institutions are offering placements in their institutions/universities
If you have an inclination for research you can pursue research in the related field. There is huge demand for pure Science students in the west in the research arena
Whereas, there are different pathways within medicine, covering a wide variety of options such as allergy, dermatology, infectious diseases, neurology, and sport and exercise medicine. Most medical roles have a mixture of ward work and clinic-based medicine and in most cases a generalist attitude is required as you will be working with patients who have more than one medical problem.
