The Medical Council of India (MCI) has recommended renewal of permission to the Indira Gandhi Government Medical College and Research Institute (IGMC&RI) to admit students for the academic year 2015-16.
A top Government official said that MCI had recommended renewal of permission to the Union Health Ministry. A communication to this effect was received by the Government on Monday.
It may be recalled that the council had earlier refused to grant renewal of permission even after it carried out an inspection. The MCI, while denying permission had cited inadequate teaching and non-teaching staff in the college.
However, the Government gave an undertaking and assured that all deficiencies would be rectified in time.
