Only meritorious students should be allowed to enter medical colleges, as the lives of patients are with the prospective doctors. "It is not understandable how moneyed persons who get comparatively low marks are allowed to get admission in foreign medical colleges or universities and they are able to get medical degrees which is also permitted by MCI which recognizes the degrees. Further, our country needs more doctors and hence urgent measures have to be taken to establish more government medical colleges to so that medical education is not commercialized," he said.The judge was passing orders on a writ petition filed by Thamarai Selvam who did his MBBS at International University of Health and Sciences, St Christopher and Nevis in the West Indies.
