HC stays NMC decision of cancelling MBBS admissions at Telangana Medical College
Hyderabad: Amid the growing concern regarding the future of students who got enrolled in the private medical colleges in Telangana, the vacation bench of High Court has put a stay on the National Medical Commission's order of cancelling admission of 150 fresh candidates at the TRR Institute of Medical Sciences until the Apex Medical Body takes a call on the statutory appeal filed by the aggrieved college.
The stay order was passed by a bench comprising of Justices Anninreddy Abhishek Reddy and Justice Mummineni Sudheer Kumar as it noted that the NMC Act itself provides for a statutory appeal and the Institute has already filed an appeal before the Apex Medical Body, reports TNIE.
Therefore, the bench directed NMC to take a call on the appeal at the earliest and not act on its orders against the medical college.
Medical Dialogues had earlier reported that following a surprise inspection, the National Medical Commission (NMC) recently cancelled MBBS and PG medical admissions in three private medical colleges in the State resulting in a huge decrease in the total number of seats.
While MBBS and postgraduate courses has been cancelled at MNR Medical College and Hospital, Sangareddy, in the case of Mahavir Institute of Medical Sciences, Vikarabad, the Apex Medical Regulator has cancelled the PG medical seats.
