New Delhi [India], May 29 (ANI): Delhi BJP President Virendraa Sachdeva called it “just the beginning” after Delhi Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena on Wednesday approved the suspension of RN Das, Officer on Special Duty (OSD) to Health Minister Saurabh Bhardwaj.
RN Das was suspended for his alleged involvement in the irregular and illegal registration of private nursing homes.
“This is just the beginning because we will demand the suspension of all officials involved in the corruption from top to bottom,” Sachdeva said on Wednesday.
“Along with this, we will also demand an investigation into the role of the former Health Minister in 2021 Satyendra Jain and the local Aam Aadmi Party MLA,” he said.
The BJP chief said that the suspension of RN Das is evidence of mismanagement and corruption in the health department of the Delhi government in this case.
Further, referring to the Vivek Vihar fire incident that claimed the lives of seven, the Delhi BJP chief said that strict action should be taken against every person involved in this crime, for which the BJP will continue to fight.
“We will continue to fight against every person who has been involved in this fire mishap, who has made corruption his source of income and will not sit until action is taken against them,” he said.
Sachdeva said that whether they are officials of the Delhi Fire Service or those who signed on these files, no one will be spared.
According to the Delhi LG’s office, the immediate cause for placing the officer under suspension is on account of reported misconduct with regard to the unauthorised and illegal running of Jyoti Nursing Home, Shahdara, beyond the valid registration period when he was also Medical Superintendent of Nursing Home Cell.
The fire incident that occurred at the Baby Care Centre at Vivek Vihar on May 25, 2024, at 11.30 pm is the recent instance of callousness on the part of the Nursing Home Cell.
In the matter, an enquiry was conducted by the Health & Family Welfare Department, GNCTD which concluded that Dr RN Das, the then Medical Superintendent (Nursing Home Cell) & OSD to the Health Minister was solely responsible for the registration of the clinic.
It has been alleged that RN Das had worked hand in gloves with the management of the nursing home and provided unlawful shelter by keeping the licence pending unnecessarily. (ANI)
