*****
The need for conferment of semi-autonomous status on certain Government Medical/ Dental Institutions of Medical or Dental Sciences has arisen on account of the difficulty being expressed by the Government in filling up the sanctioned posts of teaching faculty there. Many Government Medical/ Dental Colleges or Institutes of Medical/ Dental Sciences are located in interior parts of the State, where the Government doctors are reluctant to work and the scope for private practice by teaching faculty is limited. Unless, doctors are recruited directly for these colleges by offering higher salaries, the chances of getting the required faculty is practically not there. In the recent inspections conducted, the Medical Council of India has recommended non-recognition of medical degrees of the students of certain Medical Colleges or Institutes of Medical Sciences mainly on the ground of deficiency of staff. The guiding principle force in selecting a Medical / Dental Colleges or Institutes of Medical / Dental Sciences for according semi-autonomous status would be the need to fill up faculty positions in order to meet the staff requirement as per Medical or Dental Council of India guidelines.
2. In the orders read above, Government have conferred Semi-Autonomous status to the following institutions:-
1. Rajiv Gandhi Institute of Medical Sciences (RIMS), Kadapa
(comprising of Medical College and its attached hospital)
2. Government Medical College and Hospital, Ananthapur.
