Hello,

In India, the registration of paramedics is, in most cases, an exclusive privilege of the State Paramedical Council that issues such registration only for degree or diploma courses recognized by the Council. Considering that your BMLT course is affiliated with MAKAUT and your college is not recognized by the West Bengal Paramedical Council, you may have a hard time getting a state paramedical registration license after your graduation.

Basically, all the state councils stipulate that the institution providing the course must be approved or recognized by the state paramedical council or a central authority (e.g. Ministry of Health or AICTE/UGC). If your college is not recognized, the council may refuse to register you, which in turn means that you will not be allowed to practice as a paramedical professional legally in West Bengal.

What you could do:

1. Verify the genuine list of sanctioned institutions printed on the West Bengal Paramedical Council web portal.
2. As a next step, get in touch with the authority by phone or email to know for sure whether the students of your MAKAUT linked college can register themselves there or not.
3. In case you are not allowed to register, taking a recognized BMLT course which is an option for a college that has been approved by the council will probably be necessary if you want to work lawfully.

Hope this helps!!!
