Telangana Medical Council cracks down on 4 clinics run by 5 Quacks
Fake Doctor
Hyderabad: The Telangana State Medical Council (TGMC) has uncovered illegal medical practices during a series of raids in Station Ghanpur, Jangaon district. Four clinics were found operating without qualified medical professionals.
As soon as news of the inspections spread, five quacks shut down their clinics and absconded. According to TGMC officials, cases will be registered against all ten quacks for unauthorised medical practice and endangering public health.
One of the most alarming case involved a BHMS-qualified homoeopath, who was found operating a clinic illegally under the name of a retired Army officer. He was reportedly prescribing antipsychotic medications and antibiotics. TGMC officials plan to escalate the matter to the AYUSH Ministry, questioning the misuse of allopathic drugs by an AYUSH practitioner.
