Bill requires homoeopathy colleges to seek central government approval for student admissions
This Bill amends the Homoeopathy Central Council Act, 1973, to require Homoeopathic Medical Colleges to obtain prior permission from the Central Government before admitting new batches of students in any course, including post-graduate training. The goal is to ensure that colleges meet minimum standards for education, financial resources, and facilities, thereby improving the quality of Homoeopathy education.
Homoeopathic Medical Colleges (both new and existing) and individuals or entities seeking to establish such institutions.
- Colleges must obtain previous permission from the Central Government to admit a new batch of students in any course of study or training, including post-graduate courses.
- The permission to admit a new batch of students can be granted for a period of five years.
- The Central Government must consider whether the institution meets minimum standards of medical education, has adequate financial resources, and has provided or will provide necessary facilities (staff, equipment, accommodation, etc.) within a specified time limit.
- If a college admits a new batch of students without the required permission, the medical qualifications granted to those students will not be recognized under the Act.
