Delhi HC dismisses plea claiming UCMS fraudulently misappropriating funds
Finding no merit in the accusation that the University College of Medical Sciences (UCMS) was fraudulently misappropriating funds by claiming to run the Department of TB and Respiratory Medicine in collusion with National Medical Commission, NMC officials, the Delhi High Court has recently dismissed a petition. It was vehemently contended in the petition that the no such Department of TB and Respiratory Medicine is being run in the UCMS.
However, the bench of Chief Justice Satish Chandra Sharma and Justice Subramonium Prasad noted that the material on record indicated that the UCMS has a separate Department of Respiratory Medicine, headed by Dr Amit Kumar Verma along with other faculty members.
The Public Interest Litigation (PIL) filed by the Petitioner RK Tarun, a lawyer, sought action against NMC officials for conducting fraud inspections and submitting fabricated Inspection reports of a non-existent department of TB and Respiratory Medicine/Pulmonary Medicine at the UCMS and the associated Guru Teg Bahadur (GTB) Hospital.
