Fake Medical Exam Certificate Case: Rajasthan SOG Investigates 8,000 Foreign Medical Graduates

Around 8,000 foreign medical graduates (FMGs) are under the radar of the Rajasthan Special Operations Group (SOG) over allegations that many obtained fake Foreign Medical Graduate Examination (FMGE) certificates to practise medicine in India without clearing the mandatory licensing exam. According to the investigation, several doctors allegedly used forged certificates to secure registration with the Rajasthan Medical Council (RMC), complete compulsory internships at government medical colleges, and even take up medical jobs. So far, the SOG has identified over 100 suspected doctors and arrested 30 people, including 26 doctors, three members of the forgery racket, and former RMC Registrar.

In the latest action, the SOG arrested Charan Singh from Deeg district, who allegedly paid ₹24 lakh for a fake FMGE certificate after repeatedly failing the examination. Investigators believe a nationwide racket charged ₹20–25 lakh to provide forged FMGE certificates. The probe, launched in February, is focusing on doctors who studied MBBS in countries including Kazakhstan, Georgia, Russia, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, and China, particularly those who repeatedly failed the FMGE before obtaining registration, according to a Jagran report.
