You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 18.206.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪ST47‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a web host's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 05:36, 30 September 2026.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''Maulana Azad Medical College''' ('''MAMC''') is a medical college in New Delhi, [[India]] affiliated to [[University of Delhi]] and run by the [[Government of Delhi|Delhi government]]. It is named after Indian freedom fighter and first education minister of independent India [[Maulana Abul Kalam Azad]]. It was established in 1959 at [[Bahadur Shah Zafar Marg]] near [[Delhi Gate, Delhi|Delhi Gate]].

Four hospitals attached to MAMC have a combined bed strength of 2800 beds<ref name=overview/> and cater to millions in Delhi alone and many more from the surrounding states in north India. The college is a tertiary care referral centre and has teaching programs for graduate and postgraduate degrees and residency and subspecialities/fellowships (referred to as superspecialities in India).

== History ==
[[File:Maulana Azad Medical College.jpg|thumb|right|MAMC main building.]]
The history of Maulana Azad Medical College can be traced to 1936, when India was under British rule. During that time, [[Indian Medical Service]] was heavily staffed by the British. In 1940, Martin Melvin Curickshank of the Indian Medical Service (IMS) was appointed Medical Superintendent of Irwin Hospital and Chief Medical Officer of New Delhi. He was appointed specifically to establish a medical college complex near [[Ramlila Maidan]].<ref name=crucikshank>((cite journal|title=Obituary Notices |pmc=1816948|pages=1078–1080|volume=2|issue=5416|journal=Br Med J|doi=10.1136/bmj.2.5416.1078|year = 1964))</ref> But before his plans could come to fruition, the Second World War started in 1939 and the plan of a new medical college had to be dropped. Later on in 1958 MAMC made a very humble beginning at the erstwhile Irwin hospital (now the [[Lok Nayak Hospital]]). The foundation stone for the new buildings of the college was laid in October 1959 by [[Govind Ballabh Pant]] at the 30 acre land of the old Central Jail which was not in use.

==Courses offered==
Four hospitals – Lok Nayak Jay Prakash Hospital, GB Pant Institute of Postgraduate Medical Education & Research, Maulana Azad Institute of Dental Sciences and Guru Nanak Eye Centre – are situated in the college campus and attached to the college. These make available 2800 beds, 7200 daily outpatient attendance and 47 operation theatres for the patients and for the medical students to learn. It caters to 290 undergraduate students, 245 post graduate and post doctoral students per year being trained by 426 [[faculty member]]s and 810 resident doctors.

The medical college offers [[Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery|MBBS]], BDS and [[Doctor of Medicine#India|MD and MS]] degrees and postgraduate residency courses for super-speciality / sub-specialty fellowship degrees of MCh and DM. Institutes offering degrees in nursing and pharmacy are also attached to the college. There are more than 30 courses being offered in MAMC in the Medical Stream.<ref name="overview" /> Govind Ballabh Pant Institute of Postgraduate Medical Education and Research, a sister institute, located within the camps provides courses in super specialties and basic subjects.<ref>((Cite web|url=http://gbpant.delhigovt.nic.in/wps/wcm/connect/doit_gbph/GBPH/Home/Academic+Courses|title=Courses in GB Pant Hospital|website=GB Pant Hospital, New Delhi))</ref> Post Doctoral courses in [[Pediatric surgery]] and [[Neonatology]] are available at MAMC. Post Doctoral courses in other specialties like GI Surgery, Cardiology etc. are available at GB Pant Hospital.
