Pune: While the Pune Medical Corporation's Atal Bihari Vajpayee Medical College has received approval from the Central Government, the National Medical Commission has pointed out the fact that the medical college is understaffed.
The issue raised by the NMC has to be addressed in the next 21 days, failing which the municipal corporation will have to push its academic schedule to next year.
The chief concerns of the NMC is shortage of manpower at the medical college. At present, 48 professors have been appointed.
According to the HT report, Ravindra Bhinwade, additional municipal commissioner confirmed that this is one of the conditions put forward by the NMC and that the PMC is working on recruiting more teaching and non-teaching staff as per the NMC's guidelines
The appointment of non-teaching staff is also in the final stages. For this, the municipal administration issued an advertisement on Friday.
The proposed medical college, the first to be built and run by the Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC), had started preparations to admit 100 students by December this year. The admission process will start after the PMC gets formal approval from the Union ministry of Health and Family Welfare. However, before that, the National Medical Commission has sent a letter to the corporation stating that the issues need to be addressed.
The NMC team arrived in Pune last week and after meeting PMC commissioner Vikram Kumar had laid out the conditions required to start the college. The team had inspected the proposed site of the college, the building on Sanas ground and also the relevant documents. After their visit they presented a detailed report to the central ministry which points out some of the issues on hand that need to be seen to.
