Jammu: The students of Vaishno Devi Medical College, Reasi, Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir, have rejected the National Medical Commission’s (NMC) decision to revoke their college’s permission, citing that the grounds for revocation are unjustified.<\/p>\n
According to Kashmir Media Service, the first batch of students at the Vaishno Devi Institute of Medical Excellence, which has 42 Muslim students, has triggered a row in the 2025 fall.<\/p>\n
Speaking to reporters in Srinagar, students of the medical college said that classrooms, laboratories and other infrastructure facilities are fully functional and in proper condition. They asserted that the institution has adequate facilities required for medical education and described the infrastructure as excellent, rejecting allegations of deficiencies cited by the NMC.<\/p>\n
The students said they are directly affected by the decision and have first-hand knowledge of the ground situation, which, according to them, does not match the claims made to justify the withdrawal of permission.<\/p>\n
Reacting to the development, Shama Mohamed, spokesperson of the Indian National Congress, questioned the intent behind the NMC\u2019s move. She said that the action was taken under pressure from bigoted leaders of the Bharatiya Janata Party and right-wing fringe groups.<\/p>\n
She said the NMC should admit the truth, claiming that the decision was influenced by the fact that 42 Muslim students secured admission to the college through NEET by following all prescribed criteria. She termed the action discriminatory and politically motivated, and said it raises serious concerns about fairness and equal treatment in medical education.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
