Regarding misinformation being spread by MCI that Singhania University requires Central Government permission to take admission in MBBS and other medical courses and to award degree to the pass out students, kindly refer to the IGNOU judgment of Hon’ble Delhi High Court in which it has been held that statutory university like IGNOU and likewise Singhania University, does not require any permission from Central Government or MCI to take admission in MBBS/MD/MS & other medical courses and award degree/ diploma to the pass out students and that degree holder will be automatically recognized & eligible to apply for registration with State Medical Council and in Indian Medical Register. Taking into consideration relevant provisions of the MCI Act, the High Court further held that theMCI Act stipulates recognition of qualification and not recognition of university i.e.the degree holder shall be eligible for registration if the degree/diploma is listed in First Schedule of the MCI Act.

Singhania University’s MBBS/MD/MS & other medical qualifications are recognised medical qualification, listed in First Schedule of the MCI Act. The pass out students of Singhania University holding MBBS/MD/MS & other medical qualifications are registered medical practitioners as per Rule 2(ee)(i) of the Drugs and Cosmetics Rules, 1945.
