In a big relief to the government and the Directorate of Medical Education, which has set in motion the process of medical admission, the Medical Council of India (MCI) has renewed its permission to K. A. P. Viswanatham Government Medical College (KAPVGMC) here for admitting 50 more students during the academic year 2015-16.
With this, the decks have been cleared to admit 50 more students in addition to the existing 100 students in MBBS course being offered by the KAPV Government Medical College.
The intake for the course was increased from 100 to 150 in 2013-14.
A letter to this effect has been sent to the DME and M.K. Muralidharan, Dean, KAPV Government Medical College, Tiruchi.
He told The Hindu on Monday that the MCI team that had inspected the college a few months ago was satisfied with the facilities available at the college for offering 50 more seats. Most of the shortcomings and suggestions raised by the team had been taken care of.
