Irregularities in hospital equipment purchase in TN alleges Raja
Coimbatore: Alleging irregularities in the purchase of equipment for government hospitals in Tamil Nadu, BJP National secretary H Raja urged Chief Minister K Palaniswami to order a detailed enquiry into it.
“Instead of procuring scan, X-ray and ECG machines from the manufacturers, the Government purchased sub-standard machines from two private companies, leading to suspicion of irregularities,” he told reporters here.
Considering this, the Chief Minister should order a detailed enquiry into the purchase of such machines during the last five years, he said.
He also alleged that the State government was trying to protect the ministers and officials, who are in the Income Tax department’s radar.
Raja , here to participate in a temple function, also demanded a CBI probe into the death of Subramaniam, a contractor and aide of health Minister C Vijayabhaskar, whose premises were searched by the Income Tax department last month, near Namakkal on May 8.
