Delhi Government Suspends Two Senior Health Officials Amid Procurement Irregularity ProbePreviousNext

The Delhi government has suspended Dr. Vatsala Aggarwal, former Director General of Health Services, and Dr. Vinod Kumar Ranga, former head of office at BJRM Hospital, amid allegations of irregularities in medicine procurement. The suspensions, ordered under Central Civil Services Rules and directed by Delhi LG Taranjit Singh Sandhu, take immediate effect. Specific allegations remain undisclosed. During suspension, both officials must remain in Delhi and are entitled to subsistence allowance. Dr. Aggarwal has challenged a prior transfer order as punitive and linked to a vigilance probe.
