Uttar Pradesh government cracks down on health department misconduct. Deputy Chief Minister Brajesh Pathak has dismissed five doctors for prolonged absenteeism and ordered disciplinary action against sixteen health officials for negligence and irregularities. The dismissed doctors were found absent from duty without authorization across multiple districts. Additionally, sixteen medical officers face departmental proceedings for violations including improper registration of private hospitals, nursing homes, and ultrasound centres. A preliminary inquiry confirmed allegations that two officers deliberately violated government norms and misused their positions for personal interests. The health department is also investigating cases involving negligence in treatment, administrative lapses, and misconduct.
