The government on Friday termed as erroneous a World Health Organisation (WHO) report which claimed that 57 per cent of allopathic doctors in India do not have medical qualification.<br/><br/>In a written reply to a question in the Lok Sabha, Health Minister J P Nadda said, the report is erroneous since MBBS is the minimum qualification for enrolment as registered medical practitioner in a state medical register for practice, and hence all registered doctors have medical qualifications. <br/><br/>Mr Nadda said, section 15 of the Indian Medical Council Act, 1956 prohibits a person other than medical practitioner enrolled on a state medical register to practice in the state. <br/><br/>He said, as health is a state subject, the primary responsibility to deal with cases of quacks lies with respective state governments. <br/><br/>He said, the Centre has asked the Chief Ministers of all states to take appropriate action against quacks and evolve suitable policies to ensure availability of quality health workforce in rural areas.
