AMC Tragedies Prompt Inquiry into Students' Mental Health

Following recent tragedies at Ahmedabad Medical College (AMC), Gujarat's Health Minister Satyakumar Yadav has instructed the Director of Medical Education to launch a comprehensive inquiry into the matter.

The directive aims to examine the circumstances surrounding the incidents and assess the mental health support systems available to medical students at the institution. The inquiry is expected to focus on identifying gaps in counselling services and student welfare mechanisms.

The move underscores growing concerns about the psychological well-being of medical students and the need for robust support frameworks within educational institutions.
