The Medical Council of India (MCI) had decided to provide biometric identity cards to over 10,000 doctors (faculty) working in about 300 medical colleges across the country to monitor their attendance and other activities. The step was taken to maintain the transparency in the system and to monitor the activities of the faculty because in many instances when the Councils inspectors visited a medical college for inspection they found some faculty acting as permanent teacher of that institute and at the same time also working elsewhere.
But due to inefficient communication effort, many medical colleges claim to have not even heard about this development and MCI is not showing any keen interest in pursuing it either.
