Telangana Medical Council seeks action against five unauthorised clinics in Kalwakurthy

The Telangana Medical Council (TGMC) has called for immediate action against five unlicensed medical clinics in Kalwakurthy, located in Nagarkurnool district. According to the TGMC, these establishments are operating without the necessary MBBS qualifications and valid medical registrations. The Council initiated this request following surprise inspections on November 7 and the filing of FIRs at the Kalwakurthy police station.

The five clinics identified by the TGMC are K.S. Swamy Clinic, Dr. BVK Life Care Poly Clinic, Sri Laxmi Clinic, Praneeth Clinic, and Sri Vijaya Clinic. The Council has urged the District Registering Authority (DRA) in Nagarkurnool to take prompt action under the relevant laws to prevent these unauthorized medical practices. This could include seizing or restraining the premises to ensure compliance with medical regulations.

The TGMC has emphasized that practicing modern medicine without the proper qualifications and registrations is a serious breach of medical laws and could endanger public health and patient safety. In response, the Council has requested the DRA to provide a compliance report outlining the steps taken to address the situation at these establishments. The Council firmly believes that the violation of medical regulations by these unlicensed clinics poses a significant risk to the health and well-being of the community.
