Shiv Sena (UBT) president Uddhav Thackeray defended health workers and doctors while holding the government solely responsible for deaths in the civic and medical college hospitals in Nanded, Chhatrapati Sambhaji Nagar, Nagpur, Thane and Kolhapur.
Thackeray demanded a probe by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) into the medicine shortage and the money spent over many health care schemes. He alleged that the government`s decision to buy medicines without tendering will breed more corruption in the health and medical education department where commission agents had been ruling the roost. He alleged a ‘rate card’ for getting a choice posting in the department.
