Overview

The undergraduate medical students must complete the MBBS course, along with the mandatory one-year internship within 10 years of joining the MBBS course, the National Medical Commission (NMC) has proposed.

In a Gazette notification dated 18.05.2026, NMC Secretary Dr. Raghav Langer issued the draft regulations to amend the Graduate Medical Education Regulations 2023.

As per the notification, NMC has proposed that under the new regulations called "Graduate Medical Education (Amendment) Regulations, 2026", MBBS students will get 10 years to complete the MBBS course and internship. These new regulations are proposed to substitute clause 21 of "Chapter V: Competency Based Dynamic Curriculum at Under Graduate Level" under the Graduate Medical Education Regulations 2023.
