Topiwala National Medical College
Topiwala National Medical College & BYL Nair Charitable Hospital is one of the foremost public medical colleges in India. It is located in the city of Mumbai in the state of Maharashtra
The college holds a special place in the history of India as the first hospital made and run by Indians under the British empire. The other two big hospitals in the city at the time, KEM Hospital and Sir J.J. hospital, were managed by the British. TNMC was opened during the heady days of the independence movement in 1921 and was appropriately named National Medical College. It was then taken over by the Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai and since then the progress of the college has been going up steadily.
Through a donation by M.N. Desai Topiwala the college was upgraded in 1946 and was inaugurated by Mahatma Gandhi and Sarojini Naidu. Alexander Fleming also visited the college.
