New Delhi: The National Medical Commission (NMC) has invited applications from the medical institutions across India to seek recognition against the increased intake of seats or renewal of recognition of MD, MS, DM, M.Ch Courses.
In their detailed notification, the apex medical regulator has specified the process and regulations the authorities need to follow while applying with the NMC for obtaining recognition by the PostGraduation Medical Education Board. The NMC has further provided warnings regarding completing the application within the prescribed time.
NMC has referred to Clause 6(2) and 6(6) of the PGMER 2000 that stipulate for recognition of the Postgraduate Medical Qualification at the time of examination of the first admitted batch against the increased seat or renewal of the Postgraduate Medical course after 5 years. This is important as failure to seek timely recognition will inevitably create a stoppage in the admission process.
