Assam Battles Rising Cases of Fake Doctors in Vulnerable Regions

Hyderabad: In a recent crackdown on quackery, five individuals were booked for allegedly practising medicine without valid qualifications or registration in the Kazipet and Qila Warangal areas. The inspections were conducted at the direction of the Telangana State Medical Council (TGMC).

The TGMC found that the accused were running clinics and offering treatments without recognised medical degrees or registration. Cases were subsequently registered with local police against them.

According to news reports, in the Kazipet police station area, cases were registered against operators of unauthorized medical facilities, including Bhavani First Aid Centre, SVH Clinic on Somidi Road, and Sri Sai Teja First Aid Clinic. Under the AJ Mills Colony police station, cases targeted a first-aid centre in Qila Warangal and a physiotherapy clinic allegedly offering allopathic treatments near Ursu Dargah, Qila Warangal.

Speaking to TOI, TGMC officials said, cases were registered under BNS Sections 318 and 319 for cheating and forgery, along with relevant provisions of the NMC Act (Sections 34, 54) and TMPR Act (Section 22). Practising medicine without registration is an offence under Section 15 of the Indian Medical Council Act, 1956.

This action forms part of the council’s ongoing efforts to curb quackery, ensure patient safety, and uphold proper medical standards.

Medical Dialogues had previously reported that to eliminate quackery in the state, the Telangana Medical Council has come up with a quick and effective way to identify fake doctors by simply asking them to write a prescription. Instead of spending weeks checking forged certificates, TGMC’s anti-quackery team now simply sends decoys to suspected practitioners, asking for a prescription on the spot. After that, they check for possible errors in the prescription. In this way, the council has exposed hundreds of quacks who fail to write even a basic prescription correctly.
