Over 7.5 lakh Indian students studying abroad in 240 countries

The number of Indian students studying abroad has been on a steady rise in recent years, as students look to broaden their horizons and gain international experience. As per available data, there are currently over 7.5 lakh Indian students studying abroad in over 240 countries, with UK, US, Australia, and Canada remain the top choices, there is growing interest in other destinations such as Uzbekistan, the Philippines, Russia, Ireland, Kyrgyzstan, and Kazakhstan. In the US, the number of Indian students enrolled increased by 20% to almost 200,000 in the 2021-2022 academic year, surpassing the number of Chinese international students. 

The data indicates that the number of Indian students studying abroad has increased significantly following the pandemic. In 2022, around 750,000 Indian students pursued higher education overseas, which is a notable rise from 450,000 in 2017 and 260,000 in 2020. In 2022, India surpassed China as the leading source of international students in the US. The top choices for Indian students still include the UK, US, Australia, and Canada.

The USA has always been a popular destination for Indian students seeking higher education. According to the data available, there were 211,930 Indian students studying in the USA in 2022. The number of Indian students in the USA has seen a consistent increase over the years, with a surge of nearly 20% in the number of Indian students studying in the USA for the academic year 2021-2022 alone. This can be attributed to various factors, such as the quality of education, diverse course options, and the post-study work visa options available in the USA. The total number of enrolled students was 1,99,182.

Canada is another country that has seen a steady rise in the influx of Indian students. The number of Indian students in Canada was over 2.2 lakhs in 2019, constituting 34% of Canada’s foreign student population. Currently, there are more than 3 lakh Indian students studying in Canada. The country’s high standard of living, welcoming culture, and quality education options are some of the reasons why Indian students are choosing Canada as their study destination.

 UK has also been a popular choice for Indian students seeking higher education. The announcement of the Graduate Route visa by the British government in 2019 has further increased the number of Indian students joining UK universities. In 2022, Britain granted 1.4 lakh sponsored study visas to Indians, a significant increase from 34,261 visas in 2019. The UK’s high-quality education system, diverse course options, and the opportunity to gain work experience after graduation are some of the reasons why Indian students are attracted to studying in the UK.

Australia is also a popular destination for Indian students seeking higher education. According to the data available, there were 92,383 Indian students studying in Australia in 2022. Australia’s welcoming culture, high standard of living, and quality education options are some of the reasons why Indian students are choosing Australia as their study destination. Moreover, the post-study work visa options available in Australia make it an attractive option for Indian students seeking to gain work experience after graduation.

Germany has also seen a significant increase in the number of Indian students studying in the country. In 2022, there were 20,810 Indian students studying in Germany. The country’s high-quality education system, diverse course options, and the opportunity to gain work experience after graduation are some of the reasons why Indian students are attracted to studying in Germany. Moreover, the tuition fees and living expenses in Germany are relatively lower compared to other popular study destinations, making it an attractive option for Indian students.

Among students pursuing medical studies, Ukraine and China have traditionally been popular destinations. However, the current crisis in Ukraine has raised concerns about the future of approximately 18,000 Indian medical students studying there. Meanwhile, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, about 23,000 medical students who were studying in China have been unable to return. China resumed issuing student visas in August last year, and approximately 6,200 Indian students were able to obtain them.

While some countries have seen a surge in the number of Indian students, others have remained a popular choice over the years. For instance, countries like France and  Greece have continued to attract a significant number of Indian students. France has 10,000 Indian students pursuing higher education. France is aiming to attract 20,000 Indian students by 2025, while Greece plans to increase its outreach to Indian academic institutions through the “Study in Greece” platform. 

Singapore, the United Arab Emirates, and Malaysia have also emerged as popular destinations for Indian students. The United Arab Emirates has the highest number of Indian students studying abroad, with a staggering 2.19 lakh students currently enrolled in various courses across the country. The country’s strategic location, coupled with its welcoming policies towards international students, has made it a preferred choice for many Indian students.

Apart from these popular destinations, Indian students are also exploring other study destinations such as Armenia, Austria, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Estonia, Finland, France, Georgia, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Kazakhstan, Latvia, Lithuania, Malta, Moldova, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Russia, Slovakia, Slovenia, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan, Tajikistan, Thailand, Turkey, Ukraine, Uzbekistan, and Venezuela.

The trend of Indian students opting to study abroad has been on the rise in recent years. While some countries have seen a surge in the number of Indian students, others have remained a popular choice over the years. The reasons for this trend vary from the high-quality education system and diverse cultural experiences to the welcoming immigration policies and robust job markets. As Indian students continue to explore options abroad, it is evident that the trend is here to stay.

This means that students will be able to apply for admission to the college and take advantage of the available seats.

The National Medical Commission has granted approval for the establishment of Hindoli Medical College in Bundi district, Rajasthan, and has allocated 100 seats for MBBS students starting from the July 2023 academic session. According to Minister Ashok Chandna, the establishment of this medical college will provide the residents of the district with access to quality healthcare services. The college is currently under construction near Talab village in the Hindoli subdivision area. Students can now apply for admission in the session of 2023–24.

As per the latest information, the National Medical Commission has granted approval for the Hindoli Medical College, located in the Bundi district of Rajasthan, to admit 100 medical students for the academic year 2023–24. The college is situated near Talab village in the Hindoli subdivision area. It has been reported that the medical college will commence its academic session in July 2023, following approval from the regulatory body. Rajasthan’s Minister of State for Youth Affairs, Sports, Information, and Public Relations, Ashok Chandna, expressed his satisfaction and mentioned that the establishment of the medical college will provide the residents of the region with access to high-quality healthcare services and educational opportunities within their own district.

Minister Ashok Chandna expressed that the establishment of the medical college will bring excellent health services to the district’s residents and increase employment opportunities. The college will follow the rules and regulations of other medical colleges, and its establishment is a matter of joy for not only the Hindoli-Nainwan area but the entire Bundi district.

In a positive development for medical aspirants in Rajasthan, the National Medical Commission (NMC) has approved the addition of 100 MBBS seats at the Government Medical College in Alwar. These new seats will be available for admission starting from the upcoming academic session in 2023-2024, following the regulatory approval from NMC. The commission inspected the facilities at the college and deemed the infrastructure to be satisfactory for running the MBBS course, leading to the granting of permission for the medical college, according to Times of India.

Last year, the foundation stone for the new medical college in Alwar was virtually laid by the Union Minister for Health and Family Welfare, Dr. Mansukh Mandaviya, along with the Chief Minister of Rajasthan, Shri Ashok Gehlot.

Recent reports from the media had indicated that a team from the NMC would be inspecting several medical colleges, including those in Bundi, Dausa, Karauli, Alwar, and Hanumangarh. To prepare for the inspection, the Rajasthan Medical Education Society (RMES) in Jaipur issued a letter to the principals of these new medical colleges, advising them to be ready for the upcoming assessment.

The Rajasthan Medical Education Society (RMES) issued a letter to the heads of the five new medical colleges, advising them to be prepared for the upcoming inspections by the National Medical Commission (NMC). The RMES emphasized that the inspections would take place soon and urged the colleges to ensure that all preparations were in accordance with NMC guidelines. If any assistance was needed regarding basic necessities, budget, equipment, resources, faculty, and non-faculty staff, the office should be informed.

Recently, the NMC team conducted an inspection of the medical college in Alwar to ensure that it was operating effectively and had sufficient facilities. The team assessed whether the college had fully equipped laboratories, teaching faculty, non-teaching staff, and other necessary infrastructural facilities, in accordance with NMC norms.

According to the latest report from the Times of India, the National Medical Commission (NMC) has granted permission for 100 MBBS seats to be offered at the medical college in Alwar for the upcoming academic session 2023-2024. This decision comes after an inspection of the college by the NMC, which deemed its facilities adequate for running the MBBS course.

Court: Students have to pay their fees as per order of Uttarakhand High Court

Dehradun. The High Court, Nainital on Wednesday gave its verdict in favor of SGRR Medical College on the matter related to fee fixation at the Shri Guru Ram Rai Institute of Medical and Health Sciences. 

According to a recent court ruling, MBBS students at SGRR Medical College in Dehradun must pay the fees prescribed by the Admission and Fee Regulatory Committee. The court has ordered students to pay the first installment of 30% of the fixed fees immediately, with the remaining fees to be paid in three installments. Previously, a group of students, parents, and protesters had staged an unauthorized sit-in protest at the college gate against the committee’s decision on fee fixation.

The officials of SGRR Medical College and senior administrative officers in Doon managed to end the picket by educating the protesters on the rules and legal procedures surrounding the fees set by the Admission and Fee Regulatory Committee. Following this, the medical students and their guardians approached the Nainital High Court. The court ruled in favor of SGRR Medical College and ordered the students to pay the prescribed fees.

During the counseling of the 2018 batch of MBBS students, it is important to note that the fees for the program were not set in stone. As a representative of the state government, Om Prakash, the Additional Chief Secretary of Uttarakhand, issued a letter stating that the fees being paid by the students at that time were only a temporary arrangement and subject to change.

The medical students were cognizant of this situation, and thus they signed a declaration on a stamp paper worth Rs. 100 stating their commitment to pay the fees determined by the State Admission and Fee Regulatory Committee in accordance with the guidelines of the Honorable High Court. However, despite the fees being fixed by the committee, some students and their guardians staged a protest at the entrance of SGRR Medical College.

The individuals who protested at the entrance of Shri Guru Ram Rai Institute of Medical and Health Sciences should be criticized for their actions. While the students of the medical college are our own children, everyone should respect boundaries and maintain their dignity. Some students and their parents at SGRR Medical College made a grave mistake by being influenced by misinformation, rumors, and negative influences. They should have considered the fact that behaving inappropriately towards the institution of education where they are receiving knowledge and experience will only tarnish their reputation. This incident serves as an example for those who recklessly challenge established laws and decisions without proper consideration.

The implementation of the National Medical Commission’s (NMC) District Residency Programme (DRP) in Telangana, which was scheduled to commence on March 20, has been postponed as requested by the state’s postgraduate (PG) resident doctors. These doctors have communicated to Health Minister T. Harish Rao and Health Secretary Syed Ali Murtuza Rizvi about some practical difficulties they may face during the programme.

On Sunday, March 19, the Telangana Junior Doctors’ Association (T-JUDA) held a meeting with Minister Rao to discuss the issues surrounding the residency programme. After considering the concerns raised by the doctors, the Minister scheduled a meeting with Health Secretary Syed Ali Murtuza Rizvi on March 20 to discuss the matter further.

As per the National Medical Commission’s (NMC) programme, it is mandatory for all postgraduate (PG) residents from government, private, and deemed universities across all states and union territories to undergo a three-month training programme, during which they are required to serve at a district hospital.

According to Dr. Kaushik Kumar Pinjarala, the President of T-JUDA, the District Residency Programme has already been implemented in Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, Kerala, and Telangana. However, unlike other states, Telangana has not given students the option of serving in their home districts. Consequently, students have been posted in far-off places and are required to travel a distance of 125-150 km, which they are willing to do occasionally. However, the district hospitals where they have been posted are not providing them with accommodation, facilities, or food. When asked, the hospitals said that they had not received any communication from the government regarding these matters.

After failing to receive any satisfactory help from the state’s Directorate of Medical Education (DME), the doctors approached Minister Rao seeking a solution to their problems. The doctors requested that the government assign them hospitals in their home districts to avoid extensive travel. The minister responded positively and scheduled a meeting with Health Secretary Rizvi on March 20 at 11:30 a.m. to discuss the issues and find a solution, according to a press release by T-JUDA.

The students’ suggestion of being allotted hospitals in their home districts or near their parent hospitals was deemed complicated and practically impossible by the Health Secretary. In response, the residents proposed the idea of providing them with accommodation or offering an allowance to help them find their own accommodation and cover their travel expenses, along with food expenses.

The press release by T-JUDA states that the Health Secretary, Syed Ali Murtuza Rizvi, assured the PG residents that he would talk to all superintendents in the hospitals or rent places around the hospitals to provide them with accommodation. Additionally, he promised that food facilities would be available for all duty doctors.

The students are currently awaiting a positive response from the government and have requested that the programme be delayed. Responding to their request, the Directorate of Medical Education (DME) issued a notice on March 20, postponing the implementation date of the programme to April 1.

According to the resident doctors, the lack of accommodation would cause them additional mental stress, and their workload would increase due to the long travel distance and the shortage of support. Dr. Kaushik highlights that female residents would face even more challenges with the travel, as some of them might have to relocate with their families for three months.

The students are requesting that Telangana adopt the same approach as the other states where the programme has been implemented. According to Dr. Kaushik, “It is well-organized in Kerala.” Nevertheless, the Health Secretary stated that it would be challenging for the current batch of students, but there might be gradual improvements. The government will also have a better understanding of how to improve the situation, as per the T-JUDA press release.

Dr. DD Chaudhury from the IMA has confirmed that the Uttarakhand High Court bench is expected to address the matter on March 17, 2023. The protesting final year medical students of SGRRIMS, Dehradun had earlier expressed their objection to the sudden increase in fees and suspension of MBBS internships, and have been protesting since Monday. Dr. Chaudhury hopes that the issue will be resolved quickly for the sake of the students.

According to a protesting student from the 2018 batch, the management of SGRRIMS, Dehradun, has abruptly increased the fees from Rs 5 lakhs per annum to Rs 13 lakhs per annum, amounting to a 150 percent hike. State-quota students are required to pay Rs 26 lakhs, while management-quota students have been asked to pay Rs 37 lakhs. Additionally, the college management has halted the internships of final-year students, stating that internships will not begin until the students have cleared their dues. The protesting students plan to approach the High Court and file a plea regarding the issue.

The MBBS students who were peacefully protesting outside Shri Mahant Indresh Hospital were reportedly assaulted by some individuals. As a result, DGP Ashok Kumar instructed the Senior Superintendent of Police Dehradun Dalip Singh Kunwar to file a case against those responsible. One of the protesting MBBS students informed Edex Live about the incident and said that they had only occupied about 50 percent of the main entrance area, leaving enough space for the proper functioning of the college. Nonetheless, they were subjected to violence.

The members of IMA held a meeting with the protesting students, after which the students decided to call off their strike on March 15, as per media report. Dr. DD Chaudhury of IMA confirmed the news and mentioned that their intervention was necessary as the situation was becoming violent. He further stated that a case has been filed in the High Court, and in respect to that, the students were requested to temporarily halt their strike.

It is reported that the Uttarakhand High Court bench is scheduled to hear the plea filed by the MBBS students on March 17, 2023. Additionally, the Federation of Resident Doctors Association (FORDA) has expressed its support for the students and condemned the recent violence they faced during their protest. FORDA also alleged the involvement of the administration in the incident and criticized the eviction of students from the hostel.

Courses After NBEMS Diploma in Anaesthesiology

NBEMS Diploma in Anaesthesiology is a postgraduate program that can be pursued after completing MBBS. Candidates who complete this specialization can further pursue higher degree courses such as master’s and research degree courses recognized by the NBEMS, where the NBEMS Diploma in Anaesthesiology is considered a feeder qualification. Additionally, candidates possessing NBEMS diploma qualifications are eligible to appear in the DNB PDCET examination conducted by the National Board of Examinations for admission to Post Diploma DNB broad specialty courses.

The Gujarat State Government has proposed a new bond policy for doctors who violate their service bonds after completing their MBBS and postgraduate medical courses. Under this proposal, such doctors would only be required to serve for one-and-a-half years instead of the current mandatory service period of two years. The State Health Minister, Rushikesh Patel, announced this proposal during the Question Hour at the State Assembly on Monday.

The Minister addressed the issue of bonded doctors who do not fulfill their obligation to serve in government positions and fail to pay the bond penalty. The Minister announced that such doctors will not receive certificates for medical practice. However, it has been observed that many of these doctors instead choose to prepare for the NEET PG entrance examination, which often goes unnoticed.

According to the Minister, a new policy is being developed to address the issue of mandatory rural service for medical students who have completed both MBBS and PG. Under this new policy, these students will be allowed to serve in rural areas for a period of 1.5 years instead of the usual two years. Alternatively, if they wish to be freed from the obligation to serve, they will have to pay a bond fee of Rs 20 lakh for MBBS and Rs 40 lakh for PG courses.

During the budget session of the Assembly, it was reported that approximately 67% of MBBS doctors in Gujarat did not fulfill their bond service duty over the past two years. The State Government of Gujarat provided specific statistics, stating that out of 1,879 MBBS doctors, only 608 reported for duty in 2020 and 2021. As a result, the government is required to recover a bond payment of Rs 38.15 crore from the doctors who were absent from their duty.

The Gujarat Government has proposed a new bond policy in response to the issue of doctors neglecting their bond service duty after completing their MBBS course. According to a recent report by Indian Express, under the new policy, doctors who do not fulfill their bond service obligation for both MBBS and PG courses will only be required to serve for 1.5 years instead of the standard two years of mandatory service.

The Health Minister, Rushikesh Patel, provided additional information to the Assembly, stating that over the course of the last three years, doctors throughout the state have been required to pay a total of Rs 139 crore for failing to fulfill their service bonds.

The Health Minister, Rushikesh Patel, also noted that students who complete super speciality courses are required to pay a penalty of Rs 50 lakh if they fail to fulfill their government service obligation in rural areas for one year, according to their bond terms. In response to additional inquiries, the Minister explained that many doctors in the state do not fulfill their rural service obligation because they are able to secure positions in other locations.

During the Question Hour at the assembly, the State Government acknowledged that 359 doctors in the state have yet to pay a total of Rs 18.25 crore in bond penalties. The rules regarding bond service have undergone changes in recent years. In 2013, MBBS and PG graduates were required to serve in rural areas for three years or pay penalties of Rs 5 lakh and Rs 10 lakh, respectively. However, in 2014, doctors pursuing nonclinical subjects were exempted from the bond condition as such positions were unavailable in Primary Health Centers and Community Health Centers.

Subsequent to a Supreme Court ruling in 2018, the Indian Government eliminated the bond requirement for All India Quota students pursuing both MBBS and PG medical courses. In 2019, the bond tenure was shortened to one year, but the bond penalties for MBBS and PG medical students were increased to Rs 20 lakh and Rs 40 lakh, respectively.

According to recent reports, in 2020, the Gujarat Government declared that COVID duty would count as part of the mandatory rural service obligation. At the time, service in COVID hospitals was deemed twice as valuable as service under rural tenure. In April 2021, the government extended the residency period for final year PG students by three months and counted it as part of the bond service at a 1:1 ratio.

However, in July 2021, the Health Department rescinded the previous ruling and announced that bond service periods would once again be counted at a 1:1 ratio with non-COVID times.

According to the media, the Ministry of Education is considering bringing the Institutes of National Importance (INIs), which include IITs, IIMs, NITs, and IISERs, under the jurisdiction of the proposed Higher Education Council of India (HECI), a single regulatory body for higher education.

Until now, these institutes have been exempt from any external regulatory oversight by organizations such as the University Grants Commission or the All India Council for Technical Education. The INI designation, granted by the government through an Act of Parliament, recognizes these institutes as autonomous centers of excellence.

There is currently a discussion within the government about bringing INIs (Institutes of National Importance) under a new regulatory system. However, officials have emphasized that this will not affect the funding or autonomy of the INIs. 

The INIs will still be governed by their own Acts, as is currently the case. The aim of this move is to ensure that basic standards and benchmarks are met across institutes in accordance with the new National Education Policy. For example, many INIs, including the IITs, have not yet been accredited. However, there is ongoing debate about how to create an assessment matrix that can accommodate the unique qualities of different institutions, such as IITs versus skill universities.

According to another source familiar with the consultations, legal and legislative issues are being carefully considered to ensure that the introduction of a HECI-backed system does not have any adverse effects on INIs. Currently, there are more than 160 INIs in India, including institutions such as AIIMS, Schools of Planning & Architecture, Indian Institutes of Information Technology, and Rashtriya Raksha Vidyalaya. 

These institutes have the authority to conduct their own examinations, award degrees, and receive government funding. While they are primarily governed by their own senates or boards of governors, there is also some government involvement. For example, the IIT Council and NIT Council are responsible for making major policy decisions at IITs and NITs, respectively. These councils are chaired by the education minister and comprise all institute directors.

A former professor from IIT has expressed concern about the proposal to bring INIs into a regulatory structure similar to HECI, saying that it could have disastrous consequences. The professor believes that INIs have already established high academic standards and benchmarks, both in India and globally, and that imposing uniform standards on them would be inappropriate. Instead, the professor argues that INIs should be allowed to continue functioning as they have. The professor also worries that any move to introduce an overarching regulatory regime could eventually lead to a loss of autonomy for INIs, as it would create opportunities for regulatory overreach.
