In the very first session of the new Lok Sabha starting June 17, the Union government plans to reintroduce a key bill which aims to usher in mega reforms in the medical education sector. The National Medical Commission (NMC) Bill, which was introduced in December, 2017, lapsed with the dissolution of the 16th Lok Sabha. Following the formation of a new government after the general elections, the Union Health Ministry would have to again initiate the legislative process, and for that a fresh draft Bill would be put before the Cabinet soon, official sources said. “The draft NMC Bill is currently awaiting approval from the Law Ministry,” an official said.
