The city government is planning to open a Medical University in the city.

Though the plan has not taken concrete shape but high level sources in Delhi government say that University College of Medical Sciences (UCMS) may be upgraded as independent university by detaching it from Delhi University. This may be done on the line of formation of Delhi Technological University (DTU) by converting Delhi College of Engineering into a full fleged university. The sources say that this will be done on the basis of recommendations of Knowledge Commission. The proposed university will work under Delhi Government.
