The Morning Standard
|May 02, 2025
THE Delhi Medical Council (DMC) is facing a severe administrative and financial crisis, primarily due to the vacancy in the post of registrar.
The situation has led to a complete standstill in statutory and operational functions, with pending financial obligations exceeding ₹2.5 crore.
According to the draft minutes of a council meeting held on Tuesday, the DMC acknowledged that it is undergoing "critical administrative and financial paralysis." The absence of an authorised signatory has reportedly hampered the execution of essential duties and disbursement of payments.
