New Delhi: A bill to replace the apex medical education regulator, Medical Council of India (MCI) with a new body, to ensure transparency, was introduced in the Lok Sabha.
Congress members protested the introduction of the National Medical Commission Bill by Health Minister JP Nadda, demanding that it be sent to the pariamentary standing committee for thorough scrutiny.
Speaker Sumitra Mahajan, however, chided them, saying they should follow parliamentary procedures and give prior notice to air their disagreement with the bill's introduction.
