While announcing the availability of recognised PG Board Speciality seats this year for seat matrix preparation.

According to the recent announcement by the NMC, the Postgraduate Medical Education Board (PGMEB) received a total of 2,828 applications from medical colleges last year for the recognition and renewal of recognition of PG medical qualification. Out of these applications, the PG medical board has already made decisions on 1,870 applications, while the remaining requests are currently being processed.
