Rajneesh said the doctor misbehaved with him when he got to know that he was inquiring about the rates at other shops and asked his patient to vacate the hospital. A similar complaint was lodged by one Chand Miyan.
Medical College PRO, Puja Tripathi said the accused doctor was not coming to the hospital since May 12. "A notice was pasted at his house by Chief Medical Superintendent U P Sinha in this regard and on May 29 Director-General, Health was informed about this through a letter," she said.
