West Bengal Medical Council Reinstates registration of Dr Santanu Sen
Jaipur Police Probe Extortion Attempt Targeting Local Doctor
Kolkata: Days after cancelling the registration of former Rajya Sabha MP and Trinamool Congress leader Dr Santanu Sen, the West Bengal Medical Council (WBMC) has reinstated his medical registration.
The cancellation stemmed from allegations of making unsubstantiated claims about holding a foreign medical degree. Dr Sen was writing this fellowship on his letterhead along with MBBS and post-graduation qualifications.
Medical Dialogues had previously reported that the Calcutta High Court dismissed the West Bengal Medical Council's (WBMC) order of suspending the registration of former TMC Rajya Sabha member, Dr Santanu Sen, for two years, over allegations of making unsubstantiated claims about holding a foreign medical degree. Dr Sen, a former president of the Indian Medical Association, was removed from the list of doctors of the West Bengal Medical Council.
