Mumbai: Health Minister Anbumani Ramadoss might have accepted the Post-Graduate medical degrees of five English speaking nations, but the Medical Council of India (MCI), the apex medical education regulating body, has said that it does not recognize them.
"As per an act of the Parliament, MCI is the medical education recognizing body of the country. The health minister cannot take a decision on foreign degrees completely by himself," MCI executive member Mr. Vedprakash Mishra said.
Ramadoss has said that his ministry has recognized the post-graduate medical degrees of Britain, Canada
, United States, Australia
and New Zealand
.
"We think acceptance of their degrees will benefit India. It's a diplomatic move as well," the Minister said on the sidelines of an event in the capital.
However, MCI authorities said that recognizing the medical degrees should be bilateral. "When other countries reject our degrees, how can we give them unilateral recognition?" asked Mishra.
"No, no, no… people of these five countries can not come to India and directly practice here. We have not given this type of clearance as yet", he asserted.
But, he clarified that if the medical graduate is an Indian citizen then he or she can come back to the country, 'complete a 12 month internship' in some reputed medical college, appear for a special test specified by the MCI and then seek for registration for medical practice."
He further said that if a country wants its medical degrees to be recognized in India, then it must first move to the MCI.
