Nashik News: Bribe demanded for treatment at charity hospital, case registered against three including a female doctor
Nashik: An incident at the renowned Namco Cancer Hospital in Nashik has created a stir in the medical field. Charity hospitals have been set up so that the common man can get treatment at affordable rates. While patients are expected to get treatment at affordable rates here, a shocking incident of accepting a bribe from a patient has come to light at the same charity hospital in Nashik.
A case has been registered at Panchavati police station against the medical superintendent of Namco Charity Hospital and three others for accepting bribes. The complainant is a yellow ration card holder and his wife had undergone surgery for kidney-related disease at Namco Cancer Hospital under the Mahatma Jyotiba Phule Jan Arogya Yojana. Meanwhile, the complainant demanded Rs 30,000 on April 3, 2025, claiming that we did not get all the money for this surgery from the government and that we will have to pay the remaining money to you. After that, on April 7, 2025, they again demanded Rs 21,000 and after a compromise, Rs 11,000 was taken.
Meanwhile, the Anti-Corruption Department is investigating this matter and has registered a case under Sections 7, 7A, 12 of the Prevention of Corruption Act 1988 at Panchavati Police Station against the Medical Superintendent of the hospital, Visakha Jagirdar, a female employee, Gayatri Somvanshi and another female employee. The real purpose of the Mahatma Phule Jan Arogya Yojana is to benefit the poor, but if the hospital is looting the poor in this way under the guise of this scheme, then this is definitely serious.
