DESCRIPTION :

After the establishment of Assam Medical College¸ Dibrugarh on 3rd Nov¸ 1947¸ Gauhati Medical College¸ Guwahati on 20th Sept¸ 1960 and Silchar Medical College¸ Silchar on 15th August¸ 1968; the State Government had not established any new Medical College and thereby created a big vacuum in the Health Care delivery system. The Government realized that the number of graduate and postgraduate doctors produced was totally inadequate for the needs of the State and there was acute shortage of doctors to man the health establishment in the primary and secondary sector of the State.

college1It was in this scenario¸ the Government of Assam¸ under the inspiring and farsighted leadership of Hon?ble Chief Minister Sjt. Tarun Gogoi and with  the dedicated and untiring efforts of Hon?ble Minister of Health & Family Welfare¸ Govt. of Assam¸ Dr. Himanta Biswa Sarma ¸ decided to establish three new medical colleges at Jorhat¸ Tezpur and Barpeta in the state of Assam in 2005 so that these medical colleges would  go a long way towards meeting the need for trained human resources in all spheres of health care delivery in the state.
