Foreign Medical Graduates Protest NMC Over Delayed Eligibility Certificates

Foreign Medical Graduates Protest NMC Over Delayed Eligibility Certificates

Imagine you've finished medical school in another country and want to be a doctor in India.

To do that, you need a special paper, called an eligibility certificate, from a government group called the NMC.

But the NMC hasn't given these papers to many students for a year or two, even though they are supposed to.

This is like telling someone they can't take an important test because their permission slip is lost!

The students are upset because this means they can't get their license to practice medicine in India.

They've even protested outside the NMC's office to ask for help.

They also mentioned some other rules that are making things difficult.

They hope the government will step in and help them get their certificates and permission to work.
