Medical colleges in India ordered to install CCTV surveillance

The National Medical Commission (NMC) has directed 70 medical colleges in India to immediately comply with mandatory CCTV surveillance norms. The move aims to enhance patient safety and prevent medical negligence. The NMC's decision comes after several medical colleges failed to meet the deadline for installing CCTV cameras, which is now set at March 31st. Critics argue that the new rule will increase costs for medical institutions and may compromise patient confidentiality.
