The Senior Medical Officer (SMO) of the Health Department, Samana, was transferred to Fazilka today. The development comes days after the staff members of the Samana Civil Hospital complained against him. The SMO, Dr Karamjit Singh, has been replaced by Dr Arvind Verma. Notably, the staff had demanded that the SMO be immediately transferred from the Samana Civil Hospital.

Notably, the staff in a written complaint had alleged that Dr Karamjit Singh used to be in an inebriated condition during duty hours.

Hussan Lal, principal secretary, Health and Family Welfare, said action was taken after the department received a complaint against the SMO. “This type of behaviour is not expected from anyone, especially from the SMO, who has been in service for around 25 years. We did take the complaint seriously and did what was appropriate in the case,” he added.—TNS
