The Health Department in Gwalior, Madhya Pradesh has taken swift action against fake and illegally operated clinics. The Health Department team led by Chief Medical and Health Officer (CMHO) Dr. Sachin Srivastava sealed five more clinics during a surprise inspection. This action was taken in Gwalior city and surrounding areas, where a total of 15 clinics have been locked in four days.
During the inspection, it was revealed that these clinics were being operated without registration in the CMHO office. In many clinics, 12th pass, RMP, and nursing degree holders were treating allopathy without proper qualification, which is a gross violation of the rules. In one clinic, patients were being treated by a 12th pass person, who has been placed in the category of quack doctor.
