11 HoDs of Grant Medical College misappropriate Rs 5 crore funds over foreign tours, personal use
Affiliated to the JJ Group of Hospitals in Mumbai, Grant Medical College's senior doctors are in a fix after an inquiry revealed that heads of 11 departments have misappropriated funds to the tune of Rs 5 crore and used the money on foreign tours and personal expenses.
During a recent state assembly session, Shiv Sena (UBT) legislator Sunil Prabhu raised the issue of misappropriation of funds by the department heads and spending them for personal use.
Responding to questions raised in the state assembly on Friday, the state medical education minister Girish Mahajan confirmed the same, and said that they have sought clarification from all the department heads, who are senior doctors, and will take strict action against all those found guilty in the next one month.
