Govt May Not Be Allowed To Increase Medical Seats

The Bihar government move to increase undergraduate seats in three government medical colleges-- Patna Medical College and Hospital
(PMCH), Nalanda Medical College and Hospital (NMCH), Patna, and Darbhanga Medical College and Hospital (DMCH) -- appears to have hit a road block.

The Medical Council of India (MCI) team, highly placed sources in the health department told TOI on Tuesday, in its report submitted to the Union health ministry has cited faculty shortage as the main hurdle in increasing the undergraduate seats in these medical colleges.

The MCI teams had earlier visited the said medical colleges following a request of the state government, as it wanted to increase undergraduate seats from existing 100 to 150 in PMCH, 90 to 150 in DMCH and 50 to 100 in NMCH from coming academic session (2009-10).

"Though the Union health ministry has not communicated the MCI report to us, yet we have information about the content of the report," a senior health department official said, adding, "The department would soon send a letter to the Union health ministry to sound it about state's stand over the faculty position and other steps being taken to meet the requirement for increasing undergraduate seats."

The official, who requested anonymity, said, the MCI stand on faculty shortage appears to be exaggerated, as all the three medical colleges have sufficient number of faculties to conduct classes of increased number of students up to the third year of MBBS course. "The state government has plans to appoint new teachers in near future which would take care of things by the time the increased number of students would complete the first three years of MBBS course," he added.

Sharing MCI's stand on giving permission for starting academic activities in the three new government medical colleges at Bettiah (West Champaran), Madhepura and Pawapuri (Nalanda) from the coming academic session, the official said that the MCI teams which inspected these colleges have cited infrastructural bottlenecks for making adverse recommendations.

"While there is infrastructure in place to start first year classes in these new medical colleges, there are plans as well to create the requisite infrastructure in next one year keeping the future needs in mind," he said and added that this point too would be raised in the letter which is likely to be sent to the Union health ministry in this week itself.
