The Indian Medical Association (IMA) Maharashtra has strongly objected to the state government’s move to register CCMP (Certificate Course in Modern Pharmacology) certificate holders into the Maharashtra Medical Council (MMC), the regulatory body for allopathic practitioners, even as the matter remains sub judice.

In a statement issued on Monday, Dr Santosh Kadam, President of IMA Maharashtra, questioned the urgency behind the government`s decision, calling it "legally unsound" and "potentially dangerous for public health."
