- (a) the courses of study and examination to be undergone in, or the proficiency required from candidates at any examination held by, a University or medical institution do not conform to the standards specified by the Board of Ayurveda or the Board of Unani, Siddha and Sowa-Rigpa, as the case may be; or
- (b) the standards and norms for infrastructure, faculty and quality of education in medical institutions as determined by the Board of Ayurveda or the Board of Unani, Siddha and Sowa-Rigpa, as the case may be, are not adhered to by any University or medical institution, and such University or medical institution has failed to take necessary corrective action to maintain specified minimum standards, the Commission may initiate action in accordance with the provisions of sub-section (2): Provided that the Commission shall, before, taking any action for suo motu withdrawal of recognition granted to the medical qualification awarded by a University or medical institution, impose penalty in accordance with the provisions of clause (f) of sub-section (1) of section 28.
- (2) The Commission shall, after making such further inquiry as it deems fit, and after holding consultations with the State Government and the authority of the concerned University or medical institution, comes to the conclusion that the recognition granted to a medical qualification ought to be withdrawn, it may, by order, withdraw recognition granted to such medical qualification and direct the Board of Ayurveda or the Board of Unani, Siddha and Sowa-Rigpa, as the case may be, to amend the entries against the University or medical institution concerned in the list maintained by that Board to the effect that the recognition granted to such qualification is withdrawn with effect from the date specified in that order.
- (3) If the Commission, after verification with the authority in any country outside India, is of the opinion that a recognised medical qualification which is included in the list maintained by it is to be de-recognised, it may, by order, de-recognise such medical qualification and remove it from the list maintained by the Commission with effect from the date of such order.
