Private medical college in Tripura gets nod to begin MBBS course by NMC
Tripura CM Manik Saha said that 50 per cent of the total 150 MBBS seats will be reserved for the students of the northeastern state
Tripura Chief Minister Manik Saha on Friday said a private medical college in the state has received permission from the authorities to begin MBBS course for 150 students from the 2024-25 academic year.
Replying to a calling attention moved by Congress MLA Sudip Roy Barman in Assembly, Saha said the National Medical Council (NMC) has given its nod to Tripura Santiniketan Medical College (TSMC).
Based on the NMC’s permission, Tripura University has also issued a Consent of Affiliation to the medical college located at Ranirkhamar in West Tripura district.
The chief minister, who holds the health portfolio, said that 50 per cent of the total 150 MBBS seats will be reserved for the students of the northeastern state.
The Congress MLA, however, voiced concern over the exorbitant fees of the MBBS course.
“The medical college is reportedly charging around Rs 1 crore for the MBBS course which is quite high given the socio-economic condition of the state. Many meritorious students of the state could not pursue the medical course in the college due to the high course fees,” Barman said.
