Gujarat HC allows trained D Pharm students to register as pharmacists
Ahmedabad: The Gujarat High Court recently granted permission to a group of more than 40 students to get registered as pharmacists after completing their Diploma in Pharmacy and receiving the appropriate training in medical stores for three months and 500 hours.
This came in line with the petition that contested the Gujarat Pharmacy Council's decision to refuse registration to more than 40 students, claiming they lacked the necessary eligibility.
According to a report in the Ahmedabad Mirror, the Gujarat Pharmacy Council denied more than 40 students' requests to become registered pharmacists, claiming that they produced false and fake college documents.
The students had completed their pharmacy diplomas and 500 hours of training in medical facilities over the course of three months. Most of the colleges were from outside Gujarat.
In connection with the above, after the Gujarat Pharmacy Council refused to authorise their registration on the basis that the petitioners had presented forged and falsified college certificates, the petitioners turned to the Gujarat High Court.
