Hello Hemanth,

Hope you are doing well.

If a report submitted by Director of Medical Education M Raghavendra Rao to the State government is to be believed, then the number of PG seats available may be doubled this year in the Government-run colleges due to severe shortage of specialist doctors in Andhra Pradesh.

At present, the government medical colleges have a total of 1,008 PG seats in all specialties. The Department of Medical Education may add a total of 939 seats to the colleges in Guntur, Nellore, Ongole, Kakinada and Srikakulam.

Hope this helps. All the best!
