Chennai: Reiterating the stand of the erstwhile Medical Council of India (MCI), the Tamil Nadu Medical Council has stated that students who have completed their MBBS degree and internship via online mode, will not be eligible for medical council registration.
Besides, those students found hiding the online mode of learning in a bid to get provisional or final registration with the medical council will have to face stringent action from the authorities.
Medical Dialogues had earlier reported about the whether online mode of teaching for MBBS course from foreign medical colleges are permitted or not. To which the MCI had clarified via a RTI reply that it does not approve online teaching in MBBS.
This came after one concerned person had written to the apex medical council seeling certain information relating to an online course in MBBS by foreign Medical Universities under the provisions of the RTI Act, 2005.
