Lured by cheaper cost, many Indians opt for Chinese medical colleges

MUMBAI: From swanky cellphones to sleek Android tablets, China makes everything affordable. And now, even Indian doctors are 'Made in China', and that too for only 25-50% of the cost here.

For 20-year-old Anusree Ravi from Kerala, the dream of becoming a doctor was nearly dashed when she failed to qualify in entrance examinations for government medical colleges in India and the course fees for private colleges turned out to be beyond her parents' means.

However, unwilling to give up hope, Anusree decided to apply to universities in China, which she had heard were a cheaper option.
