MCI asks teachers to submit affidavit
The Medical Council of India (MCI) has asked the teaching faculty of colleges to submit sworned affidavit confirming their employment with the college by November 30 days to be able to continue working.
The faculty will have to provide personal details like recent attested photograph, photo ID issued by the government authorities like passport/ PAN card/ Voter ID, registration number (both for under graduate and post graduate), name of the council with which registered.
Other than that date of joining in the present college and relieving order from the previous college, details of teaching experience with exact dates of employment at each college with experience certificate from each college, details of payment of salary from August 2011 and proof of residence.
According to the MCI the information provided by the faculty member has to be endorsed by the dean/principal/director citing that he has satisfied himself/herself about the correctness of each content of the declaration.
In their recent intimation to the colleges, the MCI has made it clear that if the affidavit is not submitted within the stipulated time the assessment of renewal of permission will not be undertaken for 2013-3014.
The action has been taken, amidst findings by council that several medical colleges had sought recognition by showing fake faculty on their roles actually working in multiple medical colleges.
The Medical Council of India is of the view that in case declaration forms are found to be false/incorrect necessary action will be taken against the teacher/resident, De-an/Principal as well as the Institution for submitting false documents and the Institution may “not be considered for renewal of permission”.
According to the MCI the person will not be counted as a teacher if the original of photo, identity proof, registration certificates etc are not produced for verification at the time of assessment.
