Doctors posted at health ministers residence: Lalu Raises Accusations
Patna: RJD chief Lalu Prasad Yadav accused Bihar Health Minister Mangal Pandey of misusing his position by deputing doctors at his home.
Prasad sought to turn tables on the BJP which had earlier raised a similar charge against him and his family when his son Tej Pratap was the health minister.
He alleged four doctors had been put on duty at state Health Minister Mangal Pandeys residence along with an ambulance and questioned the silence of the BJP leaders on the issue.
"The BJP had raised hue and cry over a similar situation when some doctors and an ambulance were stationed by former Health Minister Tej Pratap Yadav to cater to needs of the people thronging him for help. But why are they silent now?" Prasad told reporters.
The RJD chief showed an official letter dated August 1 purportedly putting doctors in rotation at the new health ministers residence in support of his charges.
