This college was established in 1971 under private management as Patliputra Medical College at Ashok Raj Path, Patna. Later, the government of Bihar transferred the college to Dhanbad, This college was associated with the Dhanbad Sadar Hospital. Later, SSLNT hospital Purana Bazaar Dhanbad and Central Hospital Jagjeevan Nagar Dhanbad was also associated with this college.[2] The medical college and hospital expanded onto 60 acres (24 ha) of land in Saraidhela, Dhanbad. Buildings were constructed for the medical college (functional from 1977) and hospital (functional from 2001 to 2002) with a capacity of 900 beds.[2]

As of my last knowledge update in January 2022, there wasn't any information available on a medical college named "Shahid Nirmal Mahato Medical College" in Dhanbad. It's possible that the institution has been established or renamed after that date, or it might not be widely known or recognized.

If it is a newly established institution, you may want to check official government health and education websites, local news sources, or the college's official website for the most up-to-date and accurate information. Additionally, you can contact relevant authorities in Dhanbad, such as the state health department or medical education board, for information on the medical college.
