In this article before we gonna talk about Mohalla Clinic scam here is my point of view about the so-called clinic they don't have a tetanus injection and this injection costs around 19-20RS but they don't I visited just a month ago but they don't have any other medicine you have to rush about your nearest government hospital either you talk about cm Arvind Kejriwal to give medicine and Whatnot yes the trash government is only talking about advertisement and what the **** are they sell your sources on a free cost.
New Delhi:
The Home Ministry has ordered the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) to look into alleged corruption in the functioning of Delhi's Mohalla Clinics, the flagship healthcare project of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP).
Yesterday, the Delhi Lieutenant Governor had asked the CBI to investigate corruption allegations in diagnostic tests done at Aam Aadmi Mohalla Clinics, sources have said.
The Mohalla Clinics allegedly ran fake radiology and pathology tests without any patients, sources said
Delhi Health Minister Saurabh Bharadwaj had also flagged the matter on September 20, following which seven doctors posted at Mohalla Clinics were removed. Some doctors would come to the clinics very late and still mark full attendance, while others would bunk the whole day.
Mr Bharadwaj welcomed the CBI investigation into the Mohalla Clinic case, but alleged the Centre of "protecting" the health secretary.
"As soon as I became minister, I gave instructions to audit the medicines, but the city health secretary did not get the audit done. We welcome the CBI investigation, but why is the Centre protecting the health secretary?" the AAP leader alleged
Mr Bharadwaj said they have asked the Lieutenant Governor to remove the Health Secretary Deepak Kumar immediately.
Just days ago, Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena had ordered another probe by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) into alleged supply of substandard medicines to Delhi government hospitals.
In the Mohalla Clinic case, initial investigation found that doctors who had not been coming to the clinics had been marked as present. The clinics continued to prescribe diagnostic tests for patients who did not exist, sources said.
These hyperlocal clinics cater to the needs of not only the population of Delhi but also migratory and floating population from neighbouring states, which makes for a considerable patient load. There are also many areas, particularly slums, where the poor do not get easily get primary healthcare
