The National Medical Commission (NMC), the regulatory body is responsible for overseeing the inspection and regulation of medical colleges in India. The NMC conducts inspections to ensure that medical colleges meet the required standards for infrastructure, faculty, facilities, and education quality. These inspections play a crucial role in granting recognition and approval to medical colleges.

Once recognized, medical colleges are subject to periodic inspections by the NMC to ensure ongoing compliance with the established standards. These inspections help in monitoring the quality of education and maintaining the credibility of the medical institutions.
The NMC inspections also provide valuable feedback and recommendations to medical colleges for continuous improvement. Colleges are expected to address any shortcomings highlighted during the inspection process and make necessary enhancements to meet the evolving standards.
