The National Medical Commission (NMC), which compelled foreign medical graduates from Ukraine to complete a two-year internship, provoked protests from them on Monday in Bhopal. The students brought up the fact that medical students in India only have to complete a one-year internship. This problem emerged because some Indian medical students who were enrolled at foreign medical institutes in China and Ukraine were placed in unsafe circumstances as a result of the COVID-19 outbreak and the conflict between Ukraine and Russia. The Union Health Minister intervened to save these students, and he was looking into ways to allow them to finish their medical schooling in India.

Various organizations demanded that medical students from the Ukraine who had returned as refugees be given temporary housing at Indian institutions. Given the ongoing turmoil between Ukraine and Russia, a public interest litigation (PIL) was also launched in the Supreme Court asking that the Central Government incorporate these students into the Indian medical system. The medical students from Ukraine who had returned had also protested in a number of places.

The Supreme Court took notice of the circumstance and ordered the NMC to develop a policy within two months granting temporary registration to MBBS graduates who completed their medical education abroad but were unable to complete the practical training requirement in their parent institutes outside of India. The NMC decided to alter its policy for medical graduates who received their MBBS degree from a foreign medical school without participating in physical clinical training last year. 

The Foreign Medical Graduate Examination (FMGE) was open to Indian students in their last year of MBBS, but the NMC also required foreign medical graduates who passed the exam to complete a two-year CRMI programme. The length of the internship will be doubled in order to make up for the lack of training in clinical and practical skills. As a result, FMGs can only register to practice in India once they have successfully completed the two-year CRMI programme.

The Free Press Journal said that Ukrainian medical students who have returned to Bhopal are dissatisfied with the difference in internship length between them and Indian medical students. On Monday, the students demonstrated in front of the NMC office in Bhopal, and the protest’s organizer, Dr. Udit Soni, criticized the NMC for treating them unfairly. “NMC is completely discriminating. We are also Indians, but unlike the others, we must finish a two-year internship, he said to FPJ. A petition opposing the requirement of an internship for foreign medical graduates is also pending before the bench of the Apex Court.

After Nagaland’s statehood in 1963, the National Medical Commission (NMC) granted the Letter of Permission (LoP) for the establishment of the first medical college in Kohima. For the academic year 2023–2024, the Nagaland University, Kohima’s Nagaland Institute of Medical Sciences and Research received 100 MBBS seats from the Medical Assessment and Rating Board (MARB). Based on the Physical Compliance Verification Assessment Report and the commitment made by the Commissioner and Secretary of the Department of Health and Family Welfare, Government of Nagaland, to address all deficiencies identified by the MARB by May 31, 2023, the proposal has been approved. When the first batch accepted against the approved intake of 100 MBBS seats appears for the final exams, the college administration may raise the issue of acceptance of the qualification under Section 25(2) of the IMC Act with the National Medical Commission.

Nagaland’s main city of Kohima will now have a medical college. Since gaining its independence as a state in 1963, Nagaland has been without a medical college. The Nagaland Institute of Medical Sciences and Research, Phirebagie, Kohima, has been granted a Letter of Permission (LoP) by the National Medical Commission (NMC) to begin a medical college for the Academic Year 2023–2024. The plan has been authorized based on the Physical Compliance Verification Assessment Report and the commitment made by the Commissioner and Secretary of the Government of Nagaland’s Department of Health and Family Welfare. 

This article seeks to give additional details regarding the application procedure, the rules the NMC has established for the college administration, and the importance of establishing a medical college in Nagaland.

The LOP issued by the National Medical Commission’s MARB

The Nagaland Institute of Medical Sciences and Research, Phirebagie, Kohima, which is a part of Nagaland University, Kohima, received the Letter of Proposal (LoP) for 100 MBBS seats from the Medical Assessment and Rating Board (MARB) of the NMC for the academic year 2023–2024. The MARB ordered that the institution’s dean would be fully responsible for adhering to and maintaining the standards set forth in the National Medical Commission’s regulation throughout the academic year, including the infrastructure, both physical and human resource-related, teaching staff, clinical materials, etc.

Guidelines and the approval procedure for the college authorities

The LoP was released in response to the Physical Compliance Verification Assessment Report and the commitment made by the Commissioner and Secretary of the Government of Nagaland’s Department of Health and Family Welfare to address any shortcomings identified by the MARB by May 31, 2023. When the first batch accepted against the approved intake of 100 MBBS seats appears for the final exams, the college administration may raise the issue of acceptance of the qualification under Section 25(2) of the IMC Act with the National Medical Commission.Commission.

The Medical Admissions Review Board (MARB) said that it is necessary to build biometric attendance, a website on the medical college institution that displays all of the details of the college, courses provided, the faculty members who are available and their experience over the last five years, students who have joined, and the affiliating university. Additionally, it guided the display of hospital services, facilities, and equipment for each speciality. It also showed the OP and IP census, as well as births and deaths according to information kept by the municipal government.

The National Medical Commission (NMC)’s approval and issuing of a Letter of Permission (LoP) for 100 MBBS seats to launch a new medical college in Nagaland is crucial for the state. Since its statehood in 1963, Nagaland has been without a medical college; this initiative will give the state’s future doctors much-needed access to medical education. The Nagaland Institute of Medical Sciences and Research will be the name of the new medical school, which will be a part of Nagaland University and have its headquarters in Kohima. 

The creation of a medical college in Nagaland and the enhancement of the state’s general healthcare system are goals that will be advanced with the ratification of the LoP. The commitment made by the Commissioner and Secretary of the Department of Health and Family Welfare, Government of Nagaland, to address all issues by May 31, 2023, is also crucial for ensuring that the new medical college complies with regulations and offers its students a top-notch education.

Maximum Applications Came for These Two Universities

This year, there were a record number of applications for the Common University Entrance Test, which determines admission to undergraduate programmes at institutions all over India. In fact, compared to last year, the number of applications has climbed by more than 50%. In contrast to last year, when only 9.9 lakh students applied, this year, a total of 14.99 lakh students have registered for CUET-UG and submitted their application forms.

The competition for admission has become more difficult as a result of the increase in applications, particularly at universities where the most applications are submitted. Delhi University and Banaras Hindu University have once again received the most applications, per the trend. We will examine the causes of this increase in applications, the universities that have gotten the most applications, and the implications for the students in this article.

Reasons for the Increase in Applications

The higher awareness among the students is one of the main causes of the increase in applications this year. When CUET was originally introduced last year, a large number of students took the test for various reasons. The pupils who were unable to take the exam last year, however, have also applied this year. Furthermore, the students are aware that they would not be admitted to prestigious universities without CUET. The number of applications has also increased as a result of numerous scientific students applying for NEET, JEE Main, and CUET.

Universities with the most applications

Delhi University and Banaras Hindu University have once again got the most applications, as they did last year. Applications have been submitted to both of these universities from all over the nation. There are about 28.4 lakh applications for the 73 undergraduate programmes that Delhi University grants admission to, which equates to about 39 thousand applications per course.

Furthermore, both Chemistry and Physics have received more than 6 lakh applications each. The most applications were sent to Banaras Hindu University (BHU), Baba Saheb Bhimrao Ambedkar University, Allahabad University, and Jamia Millia Islamia. In the CUET, a candidate may take up to 10 subjects. The majority of applications were from UP, Delhi, and Bihar.

The Upcoming Competition

The increase in applications suggests that this year’s admissions process will be more competitive. Additionally, there will be more competition for admission because there are now 242 universities participating in CUET, up from 90. Universities will admit students to dual degree programmes in addition to the regular BA, B.Com, and B.Sc. programmes based on their CUET scores. They can choose between Admission may also be made based on CUET results for BBA-LLB, BA-LLB, BSC-MSC, and BA-MA programmes. On the basis of this score, several universities admit students into five-year integrated programmes.

The increased interest in higher education in India is evidenced by the record number of applications received for CUET-UG this year. The kids are prepared to put in a lot of effort to get a decent education because they realise that it is the key to success in life. The children will have to study hard for the examinations and compete against other applicants to get into the university of their choice.

Veer Madho Singh Bhandari Uttarakhand Technological University (UTU) made the decision to enhance the number of B.Tech seats at six engineering colleges that have transitioned to campus colleges during a recent cabinet meeting on April 18, 2023. The action, which is in line with the New Education Policy-2020, aims to make courses more beneficial and career-focused. This article will examine the specifics of this choice and how it might affect the state’s engineering students.

The UTU’s Six Campus Colleges

• The Institute of Technology Gopeshwar Chamoli
• Women’s Institute of Technology Dehradun
• Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam Technological University Tanakpur
• Nanhi Pari Frontier Institute of Technology Pithoragarh
• THDC-IHT New Tehri 
• Bonn Engineering College Uttarkashi are the six engineering colleges that have transitioned to campus colleges at UTU.

The requirement for more B.Tech seats

Currently, there aren’t many seats available in these universities, making it difficult to accept all aspiring engineering students. In order to fulfill the rising demand for qualified workers in this industry, one of the main goals of this decision is to increase the number of B.Tech seats, notably in computer science.

Making Teaching More Practical and Job-Oriented

Making the courses offered by these independently funded institutions more valuable and subject to university-level quality testing is an important component of this approach. The university plans to supplement the traditional curriculum with useful, skill-development, and employment-oriented courses as part of the New Education Policy-2020, even though the engineering colleges’ curricula have been implemented in accordance with the standards established by the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE).

Industrial Training Facility

The university will increase the number of seats and offer industry training to the students enrolled in these institutions in addition to expanding the number of seats. A Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between UTU and industry for the purpose of sending its students to training programmes has proven helpful in developing skilled labor for multinational corporations throughout the state, including Dehradun. Students will have additional possibilities to obtain practical experience and become job-ready as industrial training facilities grow.

An important step towards ensuring that aspirant engineering students in the state receive high-quality technical education is the decision to enhance the number of B.Tech seats in the six engineering colleges that have been designated as campus colleges of UTU. The university seeks to generate qualified professionals who can contribute to the expansion and development of the state’s economy by enhancing the usefulness and job-oriented nature of its courses and by offering facilities for industrial training.
