HC sets aside Sen's suspension
Kolkata: The Calcutta High Court on Monday set aside the West Bengal Medical Council's order, suspending former MP Santanu Sen's registration as a medical practitioner for two years from July 4, 2025, for his "infamous conduct". But the court restrained Sen from using FRCP (Glasgow), a fellowship, in his letterhead until further order. Justice Amrita Sinha said Sen might use the expression 'diploma FRCP', as mentioned in the certificate he obtained in 2019. Calling the medical council order "non-speaking" and "cryptic", Justice Sinha said the petitioner was not told about the reasons behind passing the order. Justice Sinha directed the state medical council to send the petitioner information, evidence, complaint or inquiry, based on which the order was passed. She also told the council to offer the petitioner an opportunity to raise all issues in his defence and pass a "reasoned" order. She let the council start the proceedings against Sen de novo, if it wanted.

The petitioner stated it was a diploma, not a degree. But he wrote 'FRCP' beside MBBS, which could mislead the public into thinking 'FRCP' was a degree," Datta said. The AG said it was "obligatory" for a medical practitioner to register extra qualifications with the council. Sen said, "During the WBMC hearing, I replied to every query. But my deposition was not considered by the council before suspending my registration. The decision was unethical and an anti-doctor measure, taken out of personal vendetta. Despite the extremely good work done by the govt, this kind of decision may antagonise the medical community. I hope it is only a matter of a few days before such an unethical step is revoked. "

Santanu Sen moves HC over suspension
1 2 Kolkata: Former Trinamool MP Santanu Sen on Friday moved the Calcutta High Court, challenging the West Bengal Medical Council's decision to suspend his registration. The move came a day after the council's president, Sudipto Roy, briefed the media about the suspension owing to the "infamous conduct" by Sen, who used FRCP on his letterhead. FRCP is a fellowship, which WBMC claims, is misleading when put on a letterhead. Justice Amrita Sinha granted Sen the permission to file the petition. The matter will be next heard on Monday. "During Thursday's hearing at the WBMC, I produced everything required to prove my FRCP. While I was told the council would let me know its decision, I learned from media reports about the suspension, though I am yet to get an official communication. This decision is illegal, done out of personal vendetta," Sen told TOI. An MBBS from RG Kar, Sen said he updated his PG in radiology with WBMC. He said his FRCP from Glasgow was an honorary title that did not need registration.

WBMC president Sudipto Roy on Thursday told reporters FRCP was "not a degree but a fellowship and that putting this in the letterhead was misleading, amounting to infamous misconduct". Sen said he even deposited Rs 10,000 as WBMC to get his FRCP registered. "This decision to suspend Sen's registration is uncalled for as he has not violated any norms of either WBMC or IMC Act. It is unfortunate personal and political issues were seeping into professional issues. We hope justice will be granted by court," said psychiatrist Ranjan Bhattacharyya, joint secretary IMA Bengal.
