CAT Stays Transfer of Delhi Health Services Director Amid Vigilance Probe

CAT Stays Transfer of Delhi Health Services Director Amid Vigilance ProbePreviousNext

The Central Administrative Tribunal (CAT) has stayed the transfer of Delhi's Director General of Health Services, Dr Vatsala Aggarwal, pending further hearings. Dr Aggarwal challenged her May 21 transfer, which placed her under 'awaiting posting' without a new role, alleging it was linked to a recent vigilance probe into procurement irregularities worth over Rs 350 crore. The CAT noted a prima facie case and potential irreparable harm, scheduling the next hearing for May 29. The Delhi government has sought more time to respond.
