Indian Medical Council (Amendment) Bill 2013 of India

Indian Medical Council (Amendment) Bill 2013 | Indian Medical Register


Govt proposes changes in law governing Medical Council of India
With corruption charges hitting the Medical Council of India (MCI), the government plans to take over powers to remove its president and other office bearers if they are found involved in offences of "moral turpitude".
The government is proposing changes in the law governing the MCI through Indian Medical Council (Amendment) Bill, 2013 which is under consideration of the Health Ministry.

Through a new clause, the proposed bill also makes mandatory renewal of enrollment of doctors every 10 years in the registers maintained by the body or state councils.

Once the bill becomes an Act, doctors who have been enrolled with Indian Medical Register or the State Medical Register for 10 years will have to apply for renewal within a year.
