Chhattisgarh: In wake of a complaint moved by a second-year Post Graduate medical (PG medical) student, the director-cum-professor of the government-run Cancer Institute has recently been served notice by the Chhattisgarh women's commission, for allegedly demanding sexual favours in exchange of granting marks in medical exams.
According to TOI, the senior doctor, who is also a former superintendent of well-known Hospital has been accused by the medico of allegedly flunking her in the exam, as she refused to comply with his sexual advances.
In her complaint, the student submitted that the doctor allegedly asked for sexual favours in order to grant her marks but when she refused the offer, the doctor allegedly deliberately denied signing her thesis.
The PG medical student was accompanied by her in-laws and classmates who testified her version when they moved the commission.
