How Much Does It Cost To Study MBBS In Russia, Philippines, Kazakhstan
Why Are Indian Students Choosing to Study Abroad?
Many government medical colleges in India are affordable but have limited seats. Private colleges charge very high fees. Studying overseas offers more seats, lower costs and the chance to learn in English.
How Much Does MBBS Cost in Russia?
In Russia, most MBBS programs run for six years and are taught in English. Annual tuition fees range from around Rs 2 lakh to Rs 8 lakh. Students also benefit from low hostel charges and government backing. Note that if India's National Medical Commission does not fully recognise certain clinical training, the program may extend by an additional year.
What Is the MBBS Fee in Kazakhstan?
Kazakhstan's medical universities charge between Rs 3 lakh and Rs 5 lakh each year for MBBS. Over the six-year course, total tuition adds up to roughly Rs 18 lakh to Rs 30 lakh. Beyond tuition, students must budget for accommodation, food, medical insurance, visa renewals, admission fees and travel. Knowing all mandatory costs helps families plan their finances more accurately.
How Affordable Is MBBS in the Philippines?
The Philippines stands out for its especially low fees. Both government and private colleges there offer MBBS tuition starting at about Rs 2.10 lakh per year.
As with any overseas study decision, prospective students should confirm that their chosen institution is recognised by India's National Medical Commission and factor in living expenses before finalising their plans. When applying for MBBS, consider the total cost-including tuition, living expenses, and explore financial aid options like scholarships and loans.

Ayurvedic doctor shares what a proper healthy day looks like and what should NOT be done
Let's be honest, life's hectic these days. Most of us barely stop to breathe, let alone think about our daily routines. But funny enough, it's often the small, steady habits that keep us sane. Ayurveda! The old Indian system of health has a few ideas about how to live better. And no, it's not just about herbs and oils. A lot of it is about timing up your daily life with the body's own natural rhythm. They've got a word for it: Dinacharya . It basically means 'daily routine'. Nothing too wild. Just doing things at the right time. Sounds obvious, but it's easy to forget. Starting with the mornings. There's this window, from like 3 AM to 7:30 AM, that's supposed to be ideal for getting up and going. Apparently the first half is ruled by something called Vata, which makes it easier to wake up with a clear head. Once the sun's up, Kapha kicks in, and that's when things feel heavier. So, getting out of bed earlier kind of gives you a head start. What do you do after waking? Well, scrape your tongue, swish a bit of oil around your mouth (oil pulling, they call it), and drink some copper-vessel water if you have one lying around. Sounds odd, but these old tricks are supposed to help get your digestion moving. A bit of stretching or yoga? That's next. Nothing fancy. Maybe 10–15 minutes tops. Throw in some deep breathing or sit quietly. Keeps the stress down and helps your body do its thing. Hormones stay balanced. People feel better. Image : Canva Breakfast? Keep it simple. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Remember Him? Take A Deep Breath Before You See Him Now The Noodle Box Undo Soaked almonds or dates are good. Even some roasted mung bean flour mixed with buttermilk (or lassi) is filling but not heavy. You want fuel, not a food coma. Midday is when your digestion's at its strongest. Around 12 to 1 PM. So, that's when to eat your biggest meal. If you're gonna have something rich or protein-heavy, this is the time. Your body can actually handle it now. By late afternoon, around 3 or 4 PM, you'll probably want a light snack. Nothing big. A piece of fruit or two. Just enough to stop you from crashing. Evenings around 5 to 7 PM is the good time to move. Whether that's a jog, the gym, or just a walk, this is when your muscles are ready to go. After that, slow things down. From 7 PM onwards, you should start switching off. Not saying you need to sit in silence, but maybe ditch the emails. Listen to music. Talk to someone. Do some candle gazing (Trataka), if that's your thing. Light dinner too. Vegetarian's best. Don't eat too late, it messes with your sleep and digestion. Now, this part matters: 10 PM to 2 AM is when your body does the heavy lifting, repairing, restoring, regenerating. If you're still awake scrolling Instagram, you're messing with that process. Try to be asleep by 10. Keep the room dark. Skip the screens. Let your brain and body rest properly. In the end, it's not about being perfect. Ayurveda just gives you a bit of a roadmap. Not a rulebook. Even if you follow a few of these suggestions, wake up earlier, eat when your digestion's strong, sleep on time, you'll likely feel better.

BRS urges HC to take suo motu action on food poisoning cases in Gurukuls
Hyderabad: Senior BRS leader T Harish Rao on Sunday urged the Telangana high court and the state human rights commission to take suo motu cognisance of the food poisoning incidents and student deaths in Gurukul institutions. He made the appeal after interacting with students of the Mahatma Jyotiba Phule Girls' BC Gurukul school in Nagarkurnool district, where 111 students reportedly fell ill after consuming contaminated food. He highlighted similar incidents in Jagtial, Bhadradri Kothagudem, Peddakothpalli, and Husnabad, claiming that over 100 gurukul students died under the 20 months of Congress rule. You Can Also Check: Hyderabad AQI | Weather in Hyderabad | Bank Holidays in Hyderabad | Public Holidays in Hyderabad Harish Rao slammed chief minister A Revanth Reddy for failing to take action against officials concerned, despite earlier promises to suspend them in the event of such occurrences. He accused the govt of failing to provide quality meals to SC, ST, BC, and minority children, while being willing to spend over Rs 1 lakh per plate on beauty pageants. He pointed out that under the BRS regime, the number of gurukul schools increased from 284 to 1,023, serving over 6 lakh students. However, he alleged that the Congress govt is not adhering to the mandated menu, instead serving worm-infested rice and poor-quality sambar in place of puri or chapati, as promised. Accusing the govt of endangering the future of children, he warned of statewide protests if the negligence continues.

Sribhumi set for 24x7 clean tap water with Rs 81.18cr project boost
Silchar: In a major boost to Barak Valley's infrastructure, Assam's public health engineering minister Jayanta Mallabaruah on Sunday laid the foundation stone for a Rs 81.18 crore drinking water supply project in Sribhumi town under the Jal Jeevan Mission (Urban). Tired of too many ads? go ad free now The initiative aims to deliver 24/7 tap water to over 15,000 households across 27 municipal wards, reaching nearly 75,000 residents. The ceremony at the Langai water plant was marked by traditional bhoomi pujan rituals and attended by ministers Kaushik Rai and Krishnendu Paul, BJP district president Sanjeev Banik, and senior PHE officials. Addressing a gathering at the Sribhumi District Library auditorium, Mallabaruah reiterated the state govt's commitment to Barak Valley's development. He said CM Himanta Biswa Sarma has earmarked Rs 350-400 crore for drinking water projects across the region. "Hailakandi alone has received over Rs 100 crore. Projects for Lala and Badarpur are in the pipeline, and construction will begin soon," the minister said, adding that the AMRUT scheme in Silchar is also progressing. He emphasised that Sribhumi's current water treatment infrastructure — commissioned in 1967 for a population of merely 12,000 — is grossly outdated. "This project is designed to meet the needs of today's Sribhumi," he said. The system will include a 129-km distribution network and five elevated service reservoirs (ESRs), strategically placed to ensure efficient water flow across town. While the project's completion target is December 2028, Mallabaruah urged officials to expedite delivery. "Clean water means fewer hospital visits and a healthier, stronger community," he said.
