• FMG Eligibility: The counselling is primarily for FMGE-qualified (passed) candidates from the June 2025 session.
  • Previous Batches: FMGs who qualified in previous sessions (like June 2024 and December 2024) and have not yet secured or participated in the internship allotment are also eligible to apply for the June 2025 session.
  • 2017 Batch Rule: Foreign Medical Graduates who took admission in 2017 or thereafter and did not get an allotment in the December 2024 counselling are eligible.
• The Affidavit Requirement: Every candidate must submit an Original Affidavit (Format 'A') as published on the official portal, along with their application. This is a mandatory component for joining.

III. NMC Guidelines and Internship Duration Rules

The Compulsory Rotating Medical Internship (CRMI) is regulated by the NMC's 2021 regulations, which stipulate the duration and conditions for FMGs.

• Standard Internship Duration: The mandatory duration of the CRMI is 12 months (one year) and must be completed at a medical college or institution approved/recognised by the NMC.
• CRMI Deadline: The entire internship must be completed within two years of passing the FMGE (or NExT when it becomes operational).
• Extended Internship Duration: The internship period may be extended up to 24 or 36 months for certain FMGs, particularly those whose foreign medical course involved a significant portion of online classes during the final or penultimate year, as per the NMC Public Notice dated December 7, 2023. FMGs must clarify their required internship duration with the MPMC based on their academic record.
• No Fees, Stipend Mandatory: Institutions are prohibited from charging any fee for the internship. Furthermore, FMG interns are entitled to receive a stipend equivalent to that paid to Indian Medical Graduates (IMGs) in the respective state.

The commencement of the MPMC FMG Internship Counselling (June-2025) offers a critical window of opportunity for Foreign Medical Graduates to commence their final year of mandatory clinical training. Given that the entire process is being conducted in a single, merit-cum-choice-based round with strict adherence to deadlines, time management is paramount. All eligible FMGs must complete their online registration and document submission on the MPMC portal before the December 14, 2025, deadline, meticulously prepare their choice list based on the vacancies published on December 12th, and be ready to report to the allotted college immediately after the December 23rd result.
