210 students complete MBBS in Uzbekistan amid Ukraine-Russia conflict
Hyderabad: Despite the chaos of the Ukraine-Russia conflict, 210 students, including 86 determined young women, have triumphed over adversity to complete their MBBS degrees.
Facilitated by Neo Consultancy and supported by a consortium of government bodies and institutions, these students, initially enrolled at Zaporizhzhia State Medical University in Ukraine, faced uncertainty and peril when war erupted. Recognizing the urgency of the situation, Neo Institute of Medical Sciences, in coordination with the National Medical Commission (NMC) and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Uzbekistan, orchestrated a bold plan to relocate the students to Uzbekistan. This endeavor, endorsed by both Indian and Uzbekistani authorities, ensured the continuation of their medical education at Bukhara State Medical Institute, reports ANI.
Medical Dialogues had earlier reported that after rescuing the medical students stuck in war-hit Ukraine, the Union Health Minister was contemplating the possible options for those students, so that they could complete their medical education in India.
Several organizations came forward and urged the authorities to accommodate Ukraine returned medical students in the Indian institutes as a one time measure. In fact, a PIL had been filed in the Supreme Court as well seeking direction to the Central Government to integrate Ukraine Medical students into Indian medical system, keeping in view the ongoing crisis between Ukraine and Russia. Moreover, the Ukraine-returned medicos had staged protests in a few states.
However, several Indian medical students were left with no choice after their evacuation from Ukraine and transferred to universities in other countries to continue their studies. Many went to Russia, Serbia and other European countries.
