Pertinently, the DNB courses have been introduced in District Hospitals and new Government Medical Colleges besides old GMCs and SKIMS in order to strengthen the institutions, decongest the GMCs and address the shortage of specialists in J&K, the press release said.

This is also expected to bring down the referral from the far flung districts to already overburdened tertiary care institutes of J&K.
