A major medical college in India's capital has emerged as a focal point in investigations into the recent car blast and recovery of explosives in nearby Faridabad. Al Falah Medical College, affiliated with Al Falah University, has been linked to the probe after a faculty member was allegedly involved in the car blast. According to officials, Room 13 in the college's building 17 has become a crucial part of the investigation. The room, occupied by a suspect from Jammu and Kashmir, is believed to have been used to plan logistics and transport routes for ammonium nitrate intended for multiple blasts. The National Medical Commission (NMC), the medical education regulator, is tracking the investigation and will take action based on the findings of the probe agencies. The NMC has not sent any communication to the college yet and is awaiting the outcome of the investigation. Meanwhile, the university's vice chancellor has denied any connection between the institution and the accused, stating that the doctors were only working in their official capacity. However, officials from the National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC) have questioned the university's claims of accreditation, saying that the accreditation has expired and was only valid for five years. NAAC officials have decided to write to the university, asking them to correct the information on their website, as it is against their norms. They have also sought action from the University Grants Commission (UGC) against the university for providing wrong information on their website. The probe into the blasts and the recovery of explosives has raised several questions about the university's accreditation and its connection to the accused. As the investigation continues, the NMC and other regulatory bodies will be keeping a close eye on the developments.
