MP: HC stays MCI order suspending registration of 6 doctors
Indore: The Madhya Pradesh High Court ordered an interim stay on a Medical Council of India (MCI) order suspending the registration of six government doctors of the MY Hospital including its superintendent for unethical drug trial on patients.
Justice S C Sharma of the Indore bench of the MP High Court granted the stay on the MCIs order suspending V S Paul (superintendent), Pali Rastogi, Anil Bharani, Ashish Patel, Ujwal Sardesari and Abhay Paliwal.
Former additional advocate general Sunil Jain, who represented the doctors, told reporters, "The MCI did not respond to the high courts notice issued earlier. After which, the single bench today stayed the MCIs July order."
Jain said the doctors in their petition had alleged that the MCI misused the rules and regulations in an old case of drug trial and issued orders against them without giving chance to present their side.
