The National MSc Medical Teachers’ Association (NMMTA) has expressed support to the Union government’s decision to revert to the erstwhile Medical Council of India guidelines on appointing MSc/Ph D teachers in non-clinical specialities.
The association pointed out that world over non-clinical subjects are taught by MSc/PhD qualified teachers, with many of them contributing to international institutions.
Though there has been an increase in MD seats in non-clinical subjects, nearly half of them remain vacant annually.
