The Delhi Chief Minister’s Office (CMO) on Wednesday, in a post on X, announced the appointment of four members to the Delhi Medical Council (DMC), more than a year after the body was dissolved amid allegations of administrative and financial irregularities.
“The Government of Delhi has appointed Dr. Ajay Kumar, Dr. Hansraj Baveja, Dr. S. K. Tandon, and Dr. Vinod Kumar Monga as members of the Delhi Medical Council,” read the CMO’s post.
“The Delhi Medical Council plays an important role in maintaining quality, transparency, and medical ethics in healthcare services.
The powers, duties and functions of the DMC, established in 1998 under the Delhi Medical Council Act, are “maintaining an up-to-date live register of medical practitioners and prescribing and enforcing a code of medical ethics to ensure professional conduct”.
Eight are elected, the other members are selected by the Delhi government and other regulatory bodies.”
