Role you're checking

Forensic Pathologist

Healthcare

Forensic Pathologists in India are medical officers who perform medico-legal autopsies, prepare postmortem reports admissible in court under BNSS Section 194 (formerly CrPC 174/176), examine injury patterns to classify deaths under BNS Section 2(28), and provide expert-witness testimony in sessions courts and high courts. The training path is MBBS → MD Forensic Medicine & Toxicology (3 years, formerly called FMT) via NEET-PG, with primary employment in government medical colleges, AIIMS, state forensic labs, and the Central Forensic Science Laboratory (CFSL) network under the MHA. Private-sector demand is limited — the statutory authority to conduct medico-legal autopsies and sign MLCs in India rests almost exclusively with government medical officers, making this one of the few clinical super-specialties that is structurally a government career.
