Summary:
In July 2018, the institute awarded her with the diploma certificate, which reflects her name with her husband and his surname. In March 2017, the certificate was issued to her, which reflected her name with her husband’s name and his surname. Observing that if a woman wants to forget her past then the institute need not be so “hyper technical” about the issue, the Bombay High Court has directed an institute in Parel to issue a 31-year-old doctor from Jalgaon her diploma certificate in dermatology and venereology without her husband’s name. The petition further states that after getting married, the woman had applied for registration certificate with Maharashtra Medical Council, Mumbai, to add her husband’s name and surname after her name. She said in her petition that the certificate issued by the Medical Council had both the pre-marital and post-marital names yet the diploma issued by the institute has only post-marital name..
