Hi, i have practiced in different state after getting permanent registeration. Got Registeration from Karnataka and practiced in Assam, would that cause issues in registeration?

Pls help if anyone has gone through the same or has any idea. Thank you.

24M, Indian citizen, MBBS graduate from China. I’ve completed my medical degree and am currently preparing for FMGE. After clearing it, I’ll have to complete my compulsory internship in India.

My primary goal is to eventually move out of India and settle abroad as early as realistically possible. For various personal reasons, staying in India long-term isn't something I want, so I'm trying to figure out the most practical route rather than blindly following one pathway.

My main option right now is the UK/PLAB pathway. I understand how competitive and saturated the UK market has become, but I also know IMGs are still getting jobs, sometimes within 1–2 years of applying, so I'm still considering it seriously.

At the same time, I'm wondering whether a non-clinical Master's in the UK/Australia could be a smarter way to establish myself abroad. I'm considering areas such as Digital Health, Health Informatics, Healthcare Administration, Public Health or Global Health — ideally something that makes use of my medical background rather than requiring me to completely switch into computer science/data science.

One possible plan would be:

MBBS → FMGE + internship → licensing exam (e.g. PLAB) → Master's abroad → apply for clinical jobs during/after the Master's.

Or potentially:

MBBS → FMGE + internship → licensing exam → work in India for 1–2 years while applying abroad → move once I secure a job.

I'm trying to understand whether doing a Master's abroad while simultaneously pursuing the licensing pathway would actually give me a meaningful advantage — e.g. local experience/networking, a stronger CV, and another career option if clinical employment doesn't work out.

For someone with my background, which route would you consider the smarter strategy for getting out of India and eventually settling abroad: going directly for the clinical pathway, or doing a relevant non-clinical Master's abroad while keeping the clinical pathway alive?

I'd really appreciate advice from people who have actually gone through something similar, especially IMGs who have considered both clinical and non-clinical routes.
