“It is expected that this will reduce regional disparities in the availability of healthcare professionals and will go a long way in ensuring effective quality of education. With this ratio there will be still potential for the addition of about 40,000 MBBS seats in the country if the medical colleges are evenly distributed,” read the official statement by the NMC.
