Overview

Following an RTI response from the National Medical Commission (NMC), which revealed that it had rejected 256 appeals filed by non-RMPs but heard 185 appeals by doctors against decisions of State Medical Councils since 2020, the apex regulatory body has now taken the matter under consideration.

The development comes after the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, through its Medical Education (Policy) Division, wrote to the NMC on January 20, 2026, asking it to examine the issue raised by Kerala-based RTI activist Dr KV Babu and take action in accordance with the law. The Ministry also asked the Commission to apprise it of the outcome.
