However, there is no regulatory body for
paramedical education and as such no data is available centrally.
This Ministry has reviewed the Medical
Council of India Regulations and amendments have been made to address the
geographic and rural-urban imbalance. In hilly areas and notified tribal areas,
North Eastern States and Union Territories of Andaman & Nicobar Islands,
Daman & Diu, Dadra & Nagar Haveli and Lakshadweep medical colleges can
be established land in two pieces of land at a distance of not more than 10 km.
Relaxation to set up a medical college in two pieces of land and to utilize an
existing district hospital to be attached to a medical college has been
extended to 8 underserved states of Bihar, Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand, Madhya
Pradesh, Odisha, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh and West Bengal.
There is a centrally sponsored scheme
(CSS) for “Establishment of new medical colleges attached with existing
district/referral hospitals”. Under the scheme 58 districts in the underserved
areas of the country have been identified.
The details of such districts/referral
hospitals in State/UTs-wise aregiven below:
