Ranchi: Ranchi MP Sanjay Seth met Union health minister Dr Harshvardhan in New Delhi on Wednesday evening and handed over a letter requesting the latter to allow admissions at the new medical colleges in Jharkhand for the 2020-21 session. Notably, admissions at these colleges have been put on hold by the National Medical Council (NMC) citing lack of infrastructure.
Earlier, a delegation from the Ranchi chapter of the Indian Medical Association (IMA) requested Seth to raise the issue with the Union minister.
Talking to TOI, Seth said: “Jharkhand got three medical colleges in 2019 due to the untiring efforts of the then BJP-led state government and owing to the support of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. These colleges had given a hope to medical aspirants from the state. The NMC’s refusal now to allow admissions has left the students disappointed. So I have requested Harshvardhan-ji to provide a one-time relaxation and allow admission in these institues.”
