There are a lot of fake doctors and quacks operating in the city and they pose a great danger to the public. They operate with impunity and even advertise their services widely and openly. The health department should take serious note of this practice and plan a crackdown on these people who are operating without proper licences and playing with the health and wealth of people.
Not only should they be fined and their practices curtailed, various media outlets such as newspapers, cable television channels etc should also be warned against carrying their advertisement as it misleads people. The public should also be vigilant and not fall for these conmen.
