Imphal, March 09 2014:
The RIMS authority has taken a serious note of the alleged one sided reports and contrived concerns over the process of appointment of a regular Medical Superintendent in the institute.
In a statement, Media Advisor of RIMS clarified that there was some delay in the process since the RIMS authority is more concerned with the fate of the Post-graduate students in the Biochemistry department.
There are just three faculties including Prof Amuba who is tipped to be the next MS.The next faculty cannot become the head of the department since she has crossed 62 years of age.
The third faculty is an associate professor.
The two faculties cannot teach all the PG students in the dept without inviting objections from the Medical Council of India.
The statement recalled a meeting held on 24.7.2013 during which the Board of Governors of the Medical Council of India on the standard of examination and teaching facilities in the PG course in RIMS discussed agenda to see whether the MS (ENT) course could be conducted.
It was resolved that the MCI would not recommend for the recognisation of the increase of the PG seats from 4 to 7 in the MS (ENT) by the Manipur university.
The policy of the MCI which is applicable to all Depts in RIMS is still there.
And two teachers cannot teach all the PG students in the Biochemistry Dept and the MCI shall not recommend the recognisation of the PG course, the statement added.
