N.K.P. Salve Institute of Medical Sciences is a full-fledged medical college in Nagpur, Maharashtra. The college imparts the degree Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS).[1][2] Established by the Vidya Shikshan Prasarak Mandals Academy of Higher Education (VSPM AHE),[3] the college is recognised by the Medical Council of India.[1]

Selection to the college is done on the basis of merit through the National Eligibility and Entrance Test.[4]

In 2024, the Government of Maharashtra mandated a minimum monthly stipend for MBBS interns at private medical institutions, after 13 interns from the N.K.P. Salve Institute and Lata Mangeshkar Hospital filed a complaint in the Bombay High Court.[5] This followed strikes by MBBS interns in 2022, when the school threatened to withhold degrees for interns who did not resume work.[2]
