The MCI had recommended to the Ministry of Health & Family Welfare for withdrawal of recognition/letter of permission in respect of following 6 medical colleges in NCR:

1. Santosh Medical College, Ghaziabad
2.  Subharati Medical College, Meerut
3. School of Medical Sciences & Research, Greater Noida
4.  Saraswathi Institute of Medical Sciences, Hapur
5. Shree Guru Gobind Singh Tricentenary Medical College, Gurgaon
6.  Rama Medical College, Hapur

The recommendation of MCI was received in the month of May, 2013. However, the matter has been referred back to Board of Governors for re-examination on 4.06.2013.

Medical colleges are recognized as per the provisions of Indian Medical Council (IMC) Act, 1956 and the Regulations made thereunder. For this purpose, the Medical Council of India (MCI) inspects the medical colleges to assess the standards of examination and facilities available at the college as per the minimum standard requirement as prescribed in Medical Council of India Regulation, 1999. Based on the recommendations of the Council, the Central Government recognizes and notifies particular medical qualification being awarded to the students of that medical college under Section 11(2) of IMC Act, 1956.
