Overview
- The National Medical Commission removed the names of Muzaffar Ahmad, Adeel Ahmad Rather, Muzammil Ahmad Ganai, and Shaheen Shahid Ansari from the National/Indian Medical Register.
- The orders specify that the four shall not practice medicine or hold any medical appointment until further orders.
- The Jammu & Kashmir and Uttar Pradesh medical councils canceled the doctors’ state registrations after investigators presented evidence, and the NMC then issued the national removal.
- The regulatory action follows the November 10 probe into a car blast near the Red Fort that killed 13 people and the reported recovery of 2,900 kg of explosives, with arrests under the UAPA.
- NMC sources said at least one doctor worked at Faridabad’s Al Falah University without Haryana registration, noting they held J&K no-objection certificates and that employers must verify state registrations.
