Diploma holders not be allowed to use ‘doctor’ before names: HC

Only MBBS or BDS graduates can use the title ‘doctor’ before their names, according to a High Court verdict on Wednesday.

An HC bench of Justice Razik-Al-Jalil and Justice Sathika Hossain passed this order after hearing a writ petition filed earlier.

Meanwhile, no steps will be taken against those who have already used the title, the verdict also said.
