A Supreme Court-appointed amicus curiae has attributed repeated delays in medical admissions and regulatory processes to longstanding vacancies within the National Medical Commission (NMC) and the government's failure to fill several statutory positions mandated under the law, according to Anuja Jaiswal's Times of India report.
In a report submitted to the Supreme Court, senior advocate Maninder Singh said delays in inspections, approvals, appeals and counselling have persisted despite successive reform measures aimed at streamlining medical education governance.
