Adilabad: Nakshatra Hospital in Adilabad district has come under scrutiny after serious allegations were made against the facility. Sama Rupesh Reddy, Vice President of the Youth Congress Assembly, has accused the hospital of operating without qualified medical professionals and performing unnecessary tests and surgeries on patients. According to Reddy, the hospital falsely claims to have certified doctors on staff, despite not employing any. He further alleged that patients are subjected to tests and surgeries that are not needed, causing undue harm.
Reddy filed a formal complaint with the Public Health Director in Hyderabad, urging swift action against the hospital. In response, the director confirmed that an investigation would be initiated, and appropriate action would be taken based on the findings.
In his complaint, Reddy emphasized that the hospital was violating government regulations and taking advantage of innocent patients, particularly tribal people in the region, by subjecting them to unnecessary procedures and treatments.
This complaint is part of a broader pattern of allegations against private hospitals, including a recent investigation in Ahmedabad where several private hospitals were questioned about irregularities in their operations, especially concerning treatment under the Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (PMJAY) scheme.
