THE National Institute of Child Health (NICH), Karachi, carries out the arrangements for teaching and training of doctors enrolled by the University of Karachi for the Diploma in Child Health (DCH) examinations.

For the last few years, NICH is taking least interest in this discipline of  post-graduate medical education and examinations. The last examination of the DCH for the year 2010 was held in October 2011. The exams for 2011 are still due.

The year 2012 has ended but the students for 2011 Diploma in Child Health  exams are still waiting in agony with the fear of no examinations being held in the near future.

Chancellor, vice chancellor and controller of examinations, KU, and director NICH, Karachi, are requested to make arrangements for holding of DCH- 2011 exams at the earliest.
