Kerala HC Quashes MBBS Equivalence Suffix Rule, Foreign-Qualified Doctors Get Relief

The Kerala High Court has quashed notices issued by the Travancore Cochin Medical Council directing them to add the suffix 'equivalent to MBBS in India' along with their names and degrees.

Single Bench Justice Bechu Kurian Thomas observed, "There were no regulations or guidelines issued by the Medical Council of India, the authority competent to issue such directives mandating such a requirement. In the absence of any regulation or guideline authorising the same, the State Medical Council could not compel doctors to modify their name boards or letterheads"
