This will be a one-time relaxation granted due to unforeseen circumstances, according to the proposal of the National Medical Commission (NMC).
The Country’s apex medical education regulator has proposed that final year medical students from China and Ukraine who were not able to complete their practical training due to the pandemic or the war be allowed to sit for the Foreign Medical Graduate Exam (FMGE) – a screening test which foreign medical students have to clear to practice in the country.
The students who pass the examination will then have to complete a two-year internship to be eligible for permanent registration to practice medicine in the country.
This will be a one-time relaxation granted due to unforeseen circumstances, according to the proposal of the National Medical Commission (NMC).
Currently, foreign medical graduates have to complete their training and a one-year internship at the university they are enrolled in order to appear for the FMGE exam in India. They then have to do a one-year long internship in India as well in order to get permanent registration.
