dbo:abstract
  • The British Association of Physicians of Indian Origin (BAPIO) is a voluntary organisation for doctors of Indian sub-continental origin, established in 1996 and based in the United Kingdom. Its president is Ramesh Mehta of Bedford Hospital NHS Trust. BAPIO is divided into regional centres across the UK, the largest division is in Wales. Its roles, which have included medical education, discussion forums and supporting physicians in difficulty, have led to its involvement in some high-profile court cases and debates. In 2007, BAPIO took its challenge on the 2006 immigration rules to the court of appeal after it initially lost the case against the government. The High court ruled in BAPIOs favour. In 2013, BAPIO sought a judicial review of the way the Royal College of General Practitioners (RCGP) conducted the clinical skills assessment exam. This was a legal victory for the RCGP, however, in the judges words “a moral success” for BAPIO. (en)
