Summary

The Government Medical College and Hospital (GMCH) in Sector 32 has secured approval for 22 additional postgraduate medical (MD/MS) seats, effective from the 2026-27 academic year. This significant expansion will raise the institution's total postgraduate seat count from 155 to 177.
The National Medical Commission's Medical Assessment and Rating Board granted this approval, which will see the new seats filled during the second round of counseling for the upcoming session. The additional seats are distributed across several key departments, including general medicine, general surgery, ophthalmology, paediatrics, physiology, obstetrics and gynaecology, pathology, and forensic medicine.
This enhancement is anticipated to broaden opportunities for aspiring medical specialists and contribute to a greater number of highly trained professionals in various medical fields. While the institution awaits a decision on proposed increases for super-specialty (DM) seats, it is also addressing faculty shortages through ongoing recruitment efforts and proposals for contractual appointments.
