Despite Increase in Seats, MBBS Seats Remain Vacant in India

Despite Increase in Seats, MBBS Seats Remain Vacant in India

The number of seats for medical students (MBBS) in India has grown a lot.

Even though there are more seats, some still aren't filled.

In 2024-25, almost 3,000 seats were empty.

The government says this is because they've built new medical schools and made existing ones better.

They also have rules to make sure the schools are good, with things like proper buildings, teachers, and equipment.

They are also working on adding more seats and improving hospitals to train more doctors.
