Release Revised Internship List: FMGs Urge Bihar Govt

FMG Internship
Patna: The foreign medical graduates have urged the Bihar Health Department to urgently release the corrected list of the mandatory internship programme, which is mandatory for all the medical graduates from abroad.
Even though the Bihar Medical Council had released the internship lists, recently the State Health Department cancelled two such lists for the FMGs due to errors.
Consequently, a notice was issued by the Deputy Secretary of the Bihar Government on 22.04.2025. In that said communication, the Deputy Secretary wrote to the Principal of all Government Medical Colleges regarding the cancellation of allotment of medical college hospitals allotted by Bihar Council of Medical Registration, Patna, for internship of FMG students.
Addressing the issue, the Government had mentioned how the FMGs were allotted internship opportunities at private and government medical colleges through various letters of the Registrar of Bihar Council of Medical Registration, Patna.
However, the letter mentioned how "This allotment of the Registrar, Bihar Council of Medical Registration, Patna is contrary to the provision mentioned in clause-03 of letter No. U-15024/9/2023-UGMEB, dated-07.12.2023 of National Medical Commission, New Delhi."
Accordingly, it cancelled the internship allotment and informed that the process of FMG internship allocation would be done separately by the Department. "In view of the above, the allocation of medical colleges for Compulsory Rotating Medical Internship to FMG students by the Registrar, Bihar Council of Medical Registration, Patna is cancelled with immediate effect. The process of allocation of medical colleges to FMG students under Compulsory Rotating Medical Internship will be done separately by the department," the communication dated 22.04.2025 had mentioned.
However, more than a week has passed since the State cancelled the FMG internship allotments and no revised internship list has been released yet. Highlighting this, the All FMGs Association recently urged the Bihar Health Department to immediately released the revised list. The association pointed out how the delay in internship allotment was affecting the career of several aspiring doctors, who need to complete their mandatory internship training to be able to register themselves as doctors in India and practice.
