Manipur: JNIMS reopening healthcare and academic services from 16 June

The Jawaharlal Nehru Institute of Medical Sciences (JNIMS) in Imphal will reopen its healthcare services, including emergency operations, from the 16th of June 2025.

This follows a period of temporary closure following widespread flooding across the entire campus, which began on 2nd June 2025. The institution has made provision for the work to continue to rejuvenate all the services in full, with normal surgeries to resume soon thereafter.

Apart from health care services, educational activity in JNIMS will likewise resume on the 16th of June 2025. The reopening will include regular classes for undergraduate students pursuing MBBS and BDS courses, in addition to postgraduate trainees. The management has confirmed these details as part of the measures aimed at normalizing activities in the institute.

The flooding, which saw the entire JNIMS campus affected, led to the temporary shutdown of both health and academic services. All the staff, students, and stakeholders who have made tremendous efforts to facilitate the recovery process during this hard time have been appreciated by the administration.

Routine operations, or Routine OT, will also be resumed as restoration makes progress. This is all part of a larger plan to get all healthcare activities back to normal as soon as possible so that the community may resume receiving the medical attention it relies on.

JNIMS is crucial for providing both medical treatment and medical education to the state. The resumption of activities is a significant step to re-initiate normal operations and retain the institute as a significant Manipur healthcare facilitator. The management remains focused on quality healthcare and education.

With the institute to reopen, the resumption of activities is an affirmation of the strength and determination of the JNIMS community. The management expressed appreciation for the effort of oneness, which has contributed much to overcoming the disruption caused by the flooding.
