NMC Admission Norms Out for Students with Disability
The New Indian Express Kollam
|July 20, 2025
The National Medical Commission (NMC) on Saturday announced interim guidelines for admission in MBBS courses for students with disabilities and directed them to submit self-certified affidavits evaluating their functional abilities.
While the Unique Disability Identity Cards (UDID) have been established as a mandatory for persons with benchmark disabilities (PwBD), they must also report to designated medical boards—just 16 and not in all states—for verification of their self-certified affidavit. The guidelines came as the NEET-UG counseling will begin on Monday.
Two days ago, this newspaper broke the story that thousands of medical students with disabilities are in a dilemma as they await revised admission guidelines, as mandated by the top court in its various orders.
