New Delhi: In an unprecedented decision taken by the Patiala House District Court, New Delhi corruption charges have been framed against the sitting president of Indian Nursing Council (INC) for conducting unethical practices of conspiring with six nursing colleges to grant them recognition or feasibility certificates, by resorting to cheating and forging documents
According to the findings of the district court, the sitting President, T Dilip Kumar and now-deceased Vice-President of the Indian Nursing Council KD Varyani had unethically replaced the evaluation proformas of the ad hoc inspection committee. The findings of the ad hoc inspectors pointed out shortcomings and deficiencies at the institutes including faculty shortage. However, in the replaced evaluation proformas, the training institutes were shown eligible for recognition or more seats.
The observations of the inspectors were allegedly removed from the files and asked to be destroyed by Kumar and Varyani. However, the council's staff turned in these controversial documents to the Central Bureau of Investigation.
