The announcement comes days after Union Home Minister Amit Shah launched India’s first Hindi version of the MBBS textbook in Bhopal on October 16. Last month, the Home Minister also announced that MBBS will be available in Hindi for first semester students in Atal Bihari Vajpayee Vishwavidyalaya, Bilaspur, Chhattisgarh.
“Through the New Education Policy, PM Modi has given more emphasis to the mother tongue of students. This is a historic decision. Now under Modi ji you can avail higher education in any language as per your comfort,” Shah said.
Madhya Pradesh is the country’s first state to start the MBBS course in the Hindi language. Initially, three subjects have been selected to be studied in Hindi which include Anatomy, Physiology, and Biochemistry.
A team of 97 experts has been working on the preparation of books for the last 232 days at Gandhi Medical College, Bhopal. They have been translating books from English to Hindi.
