Medical college probe report in, govt sends it to Fazal for advice

‘‘We will abide by his advice,’’ the minister said. An official of the Medical Education department said copies of the reports have also been submitted to Medical Council of India (MCI) as well as Department of Public Health, Government of India. It is the responsibility of the MCI, the regulatory authority for medical education, to initiate stringent action against the erring colleges, he said. The inspection teams comprising deans and professors of state-run medical colleges had pointed out that barring the Jawaharlal Nehru Medical College at Wardha controlled by NCP leader Datta Meghe, all the 16 private medical colleges in the state are ill-equipped.
