HC overturns NMC decision on MBBS eligibility for FMGs without mandatory english

The Madras High Court bench recently granted relief to a foreign medical graduate, who was denied an eligibility certificate by the National Medical Commission (NMC) on the ground that she did not study English.

Granting relief to the medico, the HC bench explained that English as a subject at the secondary level is not a mandatory requirement to study the MBBS course.

These observations were made by the HC bench while considering the plea by the petitioner, who is an Overseas Citizen of India. She pursued her school education in India in the Central Board of Secondary Education till 10th standard in Tamil Nadu. Thereafter, her family moved to Sri Lanka, and she completed her 12th Standard. Following this, she pursued her MBBS degree from China.
