Bellary Medical College now renamed Vijayanagar Institute of Medical Sciences, located in Ballari district, is run by the government of Karnataka. The campus of Vijayanagar Institute of Medical Sciences is situated in the former Allipur Jail Buildings. Indian freedom fighters including Sri. Chakravarthi Rajgopalachary, Sri. V.V. Giri, Sri. Bejawada Gopala Reddy, Sri. Ghantasala Venkateshwara Rao, and Sri. Tekur Subramanya were lodged in this jail. This jail was closed in 1958 and the old buildings and entire area of 173 acres (0.70 km2) was handed over by the Government to start the Medical College in Bellary in 1961. To overcome the shortcomings the Medical College was made autonomous Institution "Vijayanagar Institute of Medical Sciences, Bellary" in 1996. This medical college has overcome its shortage of staff, due to recruitment of new staff. More information...
