Gujarat Govt orders withdrawal of cases against participants of NEET paper leak protests

The Maharashtra government has ordered the Medical Council of Maharashtra (MMC) to begin registering practitioners who have completed the Certificate Course in Modern Pharmacology (CCMP) and are qualified in BHMS (Bharatiya Ayurveda). In response, the Indian Medical Association (IMA) of Maharashtra has announced a 24-hour withdrawal of medical services starting from the following day.

The MMC has been instructed to form a committee to examine the standards of competence, handling of negligence, and ethical framework for homeopathy practitioners. The committee, chaired by the MER commissioner, will include representatives from various medical organizations. IMA Maharashtra, backed by several medical bodies, has declared the strike in order to safeguard modern medical practice standards and patient safety, as the government's decision was made despite assurances from the education minister that registrations would wait for court decisions.
