Days after Union Health Ministry offered academic mobility programme (AMP) to the Ukraine-returned Indian medical students, who were forced to leave their courses midway owing to the Russia-Ukraine war, the students and parents have aired their concerns over the mobility option, citing it as a “temporary” and not a “permanent solution”.
The National Medical Commission (NMC) had recently agreed to recognise the AMP offered by Ukraine to allow these students to relocate to universities in other countries and complete their studies. Last week, the Supreme Court asked the government to consider creating a web portal containing details of foreign universities where students can apply to complete their courses under the AMP.
