Controversy erupts over appointment of West Bengal DME

Controversy has erupted over the appointment of Dr. Indrajit Saha, the former principal of North Bengal Medical College, as the Directorate of Medical Education of West Bengal.

In an X (formerly Twitter) post, a doctor has alleged that Dr. Saha was associated with the North Bengal Lobby and supported "threat culture". Further, the doctor accused Dr. Saha of helping the students from the ruling party to get honours marks in the MBBS exams.

Sharing the photograph and appointment letter of Dr. Saha in the post of the State DME, Dr. Anjay Bose, who is an MBBS graduate from AIIMS, wrote, "Meet the new DME of Swasthya Bhawan, Indrajit Saha.. He is the ex-Principal of North Bengal Medical College, who helped TMCP students to fraudulently get honours marks in MBBS Prof exams. He is the man who supported 'threat culture' of North Bengal lobby. Now he is the DME.."
