A parliamentary panel has invited actor Aamir Khan to share the knowledge he and his team gained while researching on malpractices in the medical sector. Khan and his team would appear in the upper house on Thursday morning to interact with the panel.
The 47-year old Khan had lifted the veil from the malpractices in the medical profession through his TV show Satyamev Jayate and discussed issues like doctors taking cuts and other unethical medical practices. Broadcast on 27 May (2012), the episode also addressed issues like overpricing of life-saving drugs.
The expose brought brickbats and criticism from the Indian Medical Association (IMA), which wanted the actor to apologise. Reacting to IMA’s call, Khan said that his conviction in the concept and aim of his show have left him fearless of negative reactions.
Satyamev Jayate (Star Plus), that marks Khan's entry into the field of television, has so far discussed issues like female foeticide, child sex abuse, domestic violence, amongst others.
