The Medical Assessment and Rating Board (MARB) also invited applications for setting up new medical colleges, renewal of existing medical courses and increasing UG, and PG medical courses.

NMC Seeks Fellowship Details for FMG Temporary Registration
The National Medical Commission (NMC) has asked the medical colleges to upload the details of fellowship programmes for foreign medical graduates including course content, duration, fee etc. on their official websites. The Ethics and Medical Registration Board (EMRC) of NMC will verify these details while processing the applications for granting temporary registration to the FMGs.
The commission said that failure to provide the details will result in a delay in the granting of temporary registration. The registration will be provided for a maximum period of 12 months followed by a cooling-off period of one year.
