Ayushman Card Fraud: Khyati hospital Chairman held on 6-day police remand - Video
|
Overview
The chairman of Khyati Hospital in Ahmedabad, Kartik Patel, who is currently in Sabarmati Central Jail following his arrest for the deaths of two PMJAY beneficiaries after a botched angioplasty in November last year, has been placed under a six-day custodial remand for interrogation by the Crime Branch in connection with a PMJAY card racket.
This development comes after the Detection of Crime Branch (DCB) of Ahmedabad City Police approached a magisterial court to request Patel’s custody for 14 days. Their investigation revealed his alleged role in issuing Ayushman cards to ineligible individuals, enabling fraudulent claims under the Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (PM-JAY).
