Jaipur: Five Medical Practitioners are facing suspension of registration by the Rajasthan Medical Council, after they were found flouting the ethical rules laid down by the Medical Council of India. Taking stringent action, the state medical council has ordered the suspension of the registration from the medical register, for varied periods based on the violations. The ethical violations include issuing fake medical certificates, taking benefits from pharmaceutical companies, as well as cases of medical negligence
The decision came after a meeting of the council was held yesterday. Speaking to TOI, Dr Archana Johri, Registrar, Rajasthan Medical Council informed, "Registration of a Nagaur-based doctor SN Jangid has been suspended for one year as he had provided wrong medical certificate to a woman that was needed for insurance. Later, it was found that the woman had breast cancer."
She also added that the council has initiated action against three doctors for allegedly taking benefits from pharma companies to prescribe their medicines.
