India Engages Uzbekistan to Ensure Quality Medical Education for Indian Students
The Indian government, through the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA), is actively engaging with Uzbekistan to address concerns about the sharp decline in Indian students enrolling in medical courses there, from around 2,000 to 200. MEA spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal emphasized efforts to ensure quality education and compliance with National Medical Commission (NMC) guidelines, while cautioning against exploitation by unregistered agents in both countries. Advisories from the Indian Embassy in Tashkent and the NMC provide guidance to students considering foreign medical education.
