Atul Pradhan, MLA from Sardhana of Samajwadi Party in Meerut, UP, has been on a fast unto death in the Collectorate premises for three days to stop the looting of the general public in private hospitals. During this time, after the allegations made by IMA doctors, he has given an open challenge by making his property public. He said that if the doctor has the guts then he should also make his assets public. Atul Pradhan has demanded from both the departments to investigate the income tax and GST paid by IMA doctors. To intensify the movement, he has also called a Mahapanchayat on 11th December. In fact, the dispute that started from Nutima Hospital now seems to be intensifying between SP MLA Atul Pradhan and private doctors. Following the allegations of private doctors, the MLA has made his ancestral and personal property public by giving an affidavit. It has also been announced that if I have any property other than the affidavit, the government should confiscate it.
Give details of complete earnings – SP MLA
MLA Atul Pradhan has challenged the doctors to make their assets public and give complete details of their earnings. He also demanded that the GST and Income Tax departments should investigate the private doctors doing OPD and sit in their office. MLA Atul Pradhan, who was on hunger strike for four days, said that I alone and all the private doctors should debate in public on an open platform. Not only this, Atul Pradhan has also announced a Mahapanchayat at the site of fast unto death on 11th December, in which thousands of people have claimed to gather.
The MLA has called upon the public to light two candles outside their houses for the goodwill of private doctors, alleging that looting has increased in private hospitals. And how many hospitals are charging up to 70 percent more than the bill and I am standing on the side of these weak ones. He also said that many doctors are a disgrace to their profession. He said that during the Corona period, private doctors of the city have increased their fees from five rupees to one thousand. He has demanded that the fee for seeing city doctors in OPD should be Rs 200. Each doctor sees more than a hundred patients in his OPD. Apart from this, patients of doctors remain admitted in hospitals. His visits are also frequent.
Sister also came in support of the fast
Dr. Rajita, sister of MLA Atul Pradhan, who was on fast unto death, also reached the Collectorate. His son used to sleep with his brother. Because of his brother’s hunger strike, he is not able to sleep properly at night. He told that he used to sleep with his brother. He said that his brother is fighting the battle of the common people. In such a situation, the general public should come forward. Whose hard-earned money is being looted by private doctors in the name of testing.
Know what the doctors said
At the same time, Dr. Vishwajit Bambi, one of the managers of Nutima, said that those who call doctors robbers, thieves and dacoits will not be tolerated. We are not afraid of goons, one who has character should not be teased, otherwise such people come together. This is Yogiraj, who is able to express his views openly. He is raising the right voice for himself. Gratitude to those SP representatives who did not support Atul Pradhan and supported us silently. He also thanked RLD and Congress who did not support Atul. Dr. Amit Upadhyay of Nutima said that the city is being made a hate city. Why did the district administration allow the posters and banners of Doctor Looter to be put up? He said that the doctor always wants the well-being of the patient. Atul Pradhan, come to your senses, slogans of IMA Zindabad were raised. He said that 750 people are getting employment. This crowd was not called, the hospital staff and their families themselves have come.
