Fake Registrations Row: Rajasthan Medical Council cancels Licences of 8 doctors
Jaipur: In the latest update regarding the fake registration of doctors in Rajasthan, the State Medical Council has cancelled the licences of eight doctors with foreign degrees after their certificates were found to be fake.
Officials said that these doctors had managed to secure licence from the Rajasthan Medical Council (RMC) based on forged documents. PTI has reported that the accused include Shubham Gurjar, Indraraj Singh Gurjar, Vijay Saini, Nafees Khan, Devendra Singh, Satendra Singh Gurjar, Abhishek Kumar and Sheikh Arif Iqbal.
Commenting on the matter, RMC Registrar Dr. Giridhar Goyal told PTI, "The candidates got themselves registered with Rajasthan Medical Council by submitting forged documents. RMC has taken action on the basis of the recommendation of the investigation committee constituted by the state government in the case related to registration through fake documents."
Goyal said the documents of all these people were sent to the National Board of Examination for verification, and after receiving the report from there, their registrations have been cancelled.
Recently a five-member committee headed by the Commissioner of Medical Education Iqbal Khan overseeing the investigation sent teams from the medical education department to three states including Karnataka, Delhi, and Maharashtra.
