Introduction
The Ministry of Health, Government of India set up a committee known as the
“HEALTH SURVEY AND PLANNING COMMITTEE” on 12th June, 1959 to undertake a
review of the development that had taken place since the publication of the report of
HEALTH SURVERY DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE (BHORE COMMITTEE) in 1946, with
a view to formulate further health programmes for the country in the third and subsequent
five year plan periods.
This committee recommended the setting up of six Postgraduate
Medical Institutions in the country one each at Calcutta, Mumbai, Madras, Hyderabad,
Lucknow and Chandigarh to meet the increasing demand of teachers for the rapidly
expanding medical colleges, specialist services for hospitals, and needs of the armed forces.
The Postgraduate Institute of Medical Education and Research was conceived and
planned in 1960 to create an “ISLAND OF EXCELLENCE” in Chandigarh, providing
physical and intellectual milieu for young scientists working in multiple disciplines of
medicine, to advance the frontiers of knowledge, to render humane service to the sick and
suffering, and to train medical and paramedical manpower.
The Institute was established in 1962 under the erstwhile state of Punjab. It was declared an Institute of National Importance by an Act of Parliament (Sr. No. 51 of 1966) w.e.f. 1st April, 1967.
