Admission quota increased for THESE medical students

PHQ Hospital Gilgit issues show-cause notice to Dr. Muhammad Ijaz Ayub

ISLAMABAD: In a recent educational development, the Federal Health Minister, Mustafa Kamal, addressed the long-standing concerns of students from Balochistan, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.

The minister at a press conference held at the Pakistan Medical and Dental Council (PMDC) in Islamabad announced an increase in medical college quotas across the country.

Additionally, he announced that 190 more seats had been authorized for students who were having trouble getting admitted.

For students from KP and Balochistan, 333 seats have been added. Students can now apply for admission in any province, Kamal said, thanking the PMDC team for their hard work.

In order to accommodate more students in their regions, he advised medical institutes in KP and Balochistan to raise their local quotas and raise their standards.

In order to address capacity issues, Kamal emphasized that seat expansions have also been implemented for medical programs like MBBS and BDS.

The minister referred to the situation as unfair, pointing out that students from Karachi were previously relocated to Sukkur and Larkana because of a lack of places.

PDMA issues a warning because Punjab is predicted to see thunderstorms and heavy rain.

He declared, “Our society needs serious reform,” and promised to take swift action against any indication of corruption in the medical field.

Kamal shifted his focus to national security and vehemently criticized Indian statements as being unfounded. We won’t be alarmed by India’s threats. He claimed that 250 million Pakistanis would prevent the Indian army from entering if they dared to breach the border.
