MMCRI Seeks NMC Nod to increase MBBS seat Intake to 250

She further added, “Our request to increase the MBBS intake is backed by robust infrastructure and consistent patient load. We are confident of securing approval from the NMC, having fulfilled all necessary criteria outlined in the revised seat expansion guidelines”.

If the NMC approves the increase in MBBS seats, it will help strengthen its role in preparing competent medical professionals to meet the growing healthcare needs of India. As of today, only BMC has 250 seats, while other old government medical colleges have 200 seats each.

Meanwhile, significant upgrades have been made in the last two years. These include the construction of two new hostels, one for boys and one for girls, with 150 rooms, and each room has attached toilets and can comfortably accommodate three students. The hostels, however, are located on the PKTB Hospital campus on KRS Road.

Along with this, MMCRI has also built a new lecture complex, which has three classrooms that can accommodate 300 students each and two examination halls that can accommodate 500 students each. Both the undergraduate and postgraduate libraries have also been upgraded as part of the expansion efforts.
