Classes at Konni medical college set to start this academic year

Focussed efforts by authorities to commence MBBS classes at the Government Medical College in Konni in the ongoing academic year itself have finally paid off, with the National Medical Commission (NMC) according a formal approval to the college.

According to Health Minister Veena George, admission of MBBS students will be made possible in this academic year itself by expediting the procedures. With this, the number of approved MBBS seats in the government sector will become 1,655.

“The recognition from NMC will pave the way for major development of the Konni medical college, which will be upgraded in a phased manner,” said Ms. George in a statement.
