Medical Colleges In Maharashtra Likely To Lose PG Seats

Date: 17-May-2021

Three medical seats are likely to reduce in numbers as three medical colleges in Maharashtra lose seats according to the instructions of the National Medical Commission (NMC). These NMC has instructed to reduce 15 seats from Indira Gandhi Government Medical College and Hospital (IGGMCH), Akola Government Medical College and Hospital, and Dr. Panjabrao Deshmukh Memorial Medical College in Vidarbha pointing out deficiencies in the compliance reports of these colleges.

Out of these 15 seats, 6 MD medicine and 3 MS Ophthalmology seats are from the Indira Gandhi Government Medical College and Hospital, 2 Community Medicine seats from Akola Government Medical College and Hospital, and four MS Surgery seats from Dr. Panjabrao Deshmukh Memorial Medical College in Amravati. 

Disheartened with the reduction of seats, former deputy mayor of Nagpur Shekhar Sawarbandhe has said that “The NMC has deliberately reduced the available postgraduate seats in Maharashtra for 2021 for students who are working day and night in hospitals to save lives in these difficult times and losing PG seats means losing specialist doctors in this Covid pandemic time. We appeal to the central government to restore these seats before admission starts”.

While the authorities at these medical colleges have claimed that they have sent the compliance reports to NMC, sources at NMC claim that these compliance reports still have some deficiencies which can be filled up as the NEET PG exam has been postponed till August 31.
