Indore: Bringing relief to the medical aspirants in Tamil Nadu, the Health Minister of the State Ma. Subramanian has stated that the National Medical Commission (NMC) has renewed five-year recognition for Government Stanley Medical College, Chennai, Government Medical College, Dharmapuri and the K.A.P Viswanatham Government Medical College, Tiruchi.

The Apex medical commission had earlier derecognised these three medical colleges citing deficiencies in the biometric attendance system and CCTV cameras.

Medical Dialogues had earlier reported that with the NMC's decision to withdraw recognition, Tamil Nadu was facing a loss of 500 MBBS seats. Writing to the deans of these medical colleges, the director of UGMEB Shambhu Sharan Kumar informed about its decision to withdraw recognition as it found the response regarding deficiencies in the biometric attendance and cameras to be "not satisfactory".

Earlier this month, the Health Minister informed that NMC had withdrawn its derecognition for Stanley Medical College and Dharmapuri Medical College.

"Stanley Medical College in Chennai, and Dharmapuri Medical College have been re-accredited. The derecognition certificate of Government Stanley Medical College Hospital and Dharmapuri Government Medical College has been withdrawn by NMC and an unrestricted certificate has been given for the next 5 years after the minor deficiencies in CCTV, Aadhaar-linked biometric attendance procedures, etc. have been rectified in these medical colleges.

A couple of minor deficiencies in government medical colleges have been rectified. The NMC team visited the colleges recently and inspected them, About two weeks back, the NMC had issued notices to withdraw recognition to three medical colleges in Tamil Nadu--Government Stanley Medical College, Government Dharmapuri Medical College and K.A.P Viswanathan Government Medical College in Tiruchi--citing “minor deficiencies” of CCTV cameras and biometric system of attendance, Health Minister had informed.
