is medical seats increasing in karnataka
Hello there,
Yes, medical seats in Karnataka have been increasing in recent years. This expansion is due to several factors:
-
New Medical Colleges: The government of Karnataka, along with private entities, has been establishing new medical colleges to meet the rising demand for medical education. New institutions, both government and private, add seats each year.
-
Increase in Existing Colleges' Capacity: Many existing government and private medical colleges in Karnataka are increasing their intake capacity, subject to approval from regulatory bodies like the National Medical Commission (NMC).
Government Initiatives:
The central government, through schemes like the Pradhan Mantri Swasthya Suraksha Yojana (PMSSY), aims to improve medical education and healthcare infrastructure in states, including Karnataka. This has led to an increase in the number of government medical seats.
EWS and OBC Quotas: With the introduction of the Economically Weaker Section (EWS) quota and the increase in OBC reservations, medical colleges have added seats to accommodate these categories without reducing general category seats.
For the latest updates on medical seat counts, you can refer to announcements from Karnataka Examination Authority (KEA) and the National Medical Commission (NMC).
