MBBS Admission: SNMMCH Dhanbad will enroll for 100 seats of MBBS 2023-24. The medical college management is ready for this, but the education of the students is still in question. The reason for this is the shortage of teachers. The faculty deficiency in the medical college remains around 33 percent as before. There are 189 sanctioned posts of doctors. Against this only 126 are working. In many departments there is not even a single teacher. Some have professors, some don’t have associate professors. If you are an associate professor, you are not an assistant professor. Let us tell you that after a long struggle, this year the National Medical Commission (NMC) has allowed SNMMC to enroll 100 seats in MBBS. The enrollment process will start from this week itself. There are not enough teachers to teach the students who are enrolled. The shortage of teachers has been here for almost 15 years. Many posts of Professor, Associate Professor and Assistant Professor are vacant. The government has not been able to remove this deficiency till now, which directly affects the education of the students. The shortage of teachers was also affecting 50 seats. Now this shortage will affect the studies of 100 MBBS students as well.
There is an impact on the treatment as well: Due to the shortage of teachers, patients are also affected along with the students. His treatment is being affected. Only the teachers of the Medical College treat the patients in the Medical College Hospital. Due to their lack, patients put more pressure on preferred doctors.
