Andhra Seeks NMC nod for PG Medical Courses at 5 New Medical Colleges
Andhra Seeks NMC approval for PG Medical Courses at 5 New Medical Colleges
The Government of Andhra Pradesh has approached the National Medical Commission (NMC) seeking permission to commence postgraduate medical courses at the newly established medical colleges in Vizianagaram, Rajamahendravaram, Eluru, Machilipatnam, and Nandyala.
Recently, these medical colleges started with an intake capacity of 150 MBBS seats each.
Confirming that the Government is seeking NMC nod for starting PG medical courses at these medical colleges, the director of medical education (DME) Dr DSVL Narasimham said, "We wrote to the NMC to admit two students per branch in broad specialty PG medical courses, including MD (Doctor of Medicine) and MS (Master of Surgery) programmes such as paediatrics, gynaecology, orthopaedics, anaesthesia, and others from the 2025–26 academic year."
The DME further informed that they write to the Apex Medical Commission in November 2024 seeking permission to start the PG medical courses and admit students from the coming academic years only after developing all necessary infrastructural amenities, including faculty and clinical materials, which are key parameters for NMC's assessment to grant LoP for admitting the new PG admissions.
