Fake doctor spreading misinformation on social media? Telangana Medical Council makes move
A statement issued in this regard as reported by TOI mentioned "Rambabu misled people by taking basic first aid training to work in an ambulance while posing as a licensed doctor. After a three-month investigation, TGMC officials were able to track him down. He confused the public by recommending dangerous, unverified health practices, such as advising against treatment during emergencies and promoting unqualified drugs for ICU care."
According to the council, a case will be filed against Rambabu under the provisions of the National Medical Commission (NMC) Act Sections 34 and 54, and the Telangana State Medical Practitioners Registration (TSMPR) Act Section 22.
