As per reports, the Telangana government is all set to start the Mancherial Medical College from the academic year 2022-23. The medical institute is going to be operated in temporary structures built in the existing agriculture market yard at Ramnagar in district headquarters.
Dr Suleman Md, principal, told Telangana Today that the necessary amenities were created for the smooth conduct of the classes at the college by this October.
Classrooms, laboratories, gym, demo rooms, canteen, electricity, etc., were ready. 3,000 books would be received soon. A private building was taken on rent for providing a hostel facility, he added.
"A three-member committee of the National Medical Commission (NMC) which inspected the college infrastructure in February last year, was satisfied. The apex regulatory body, however, raised an objection over the operation of the medical college under iron sheds during a virtual inspection carried out in July. But, the authorities gave an undertaking to build better structures in the near future," he further added.
