The National Medical Commission (NMC) has approved 777 additional postgraduate seats for 125 medical colleges. At the same time, it rejected the appeals of 76 colleges and sent 12 cases back to the Medical Assessment and Rating Board (MARB) for further review.
This information was shared in the Rajya Sabha by Minister of State for Health and Family Welfare, Anupriya Patel. She informed that so far, 162 Letters of Disapproval (LoDs) have been issued by MARB due to reasons such as incomplete documents, lack of proper infrastructure, shortage of clinical material (patients), and issues related to faculty attendance recorded through AEBAS.
