The Medical Council of India (MCI) has amended the Indian Medical Council Act, 1956 to make doctors holding postgraduate medical qualifications (MD, MS, DM or MCh) awarded in countries like the US, the UK, Canada, Australia and New Zealand eligible to teach in medical colleges in India.
Till now, while students with medical degrees from the US, the UK, Australia, New Zealand and Canada were exempted from the Foreign Medical Graduates Examination (FMGE) in order to pursue medical practice in India, they were not allowed to hold teaching posts.
Do these doctors with foreign PG medical degrees would take up low-paying teaching jobs in medical colleges?
