Probe in harassment charges against Dr Maravi still continues

Sunday, 26 June 2022 | Staff Reporter | bhopal

The allegations against Dr Deepak Maravi, the superintendent of Hamidia Hospital, may not have proved in the investigation of the internal committee, but the matter is not over yet.

On Friday, some nurses along with BJP leader Manish Srivastava had reached the office of the divisional commissioner Gulshan Bamra where they lodged their objection in front of the divisional commissioner. The nurses said that Dr. Maravi's behavior is not good, so he should be removed from the post of superintendent.

According to sources, the Divisional Commissioner told the nurses that an inquiry committee had been formed. The complaints will have to be placed before the committee for due consideration. In this way, repeatedly complaining about the same matter and giving opportunity to be heard on it cannot be given. Nevertheless, the department will take action at its level.

Let us tell you that there was a complaint by nurses against Dr. Maravi. On this, the Medical Education Minister Vishwas Sarang had ordered an inquiry to the Divisional Commissioner. On this basis, the Dean of Gandhi Medical College, Dr. Arvind Rai had formed an internal inquiry committee into gender issues.

The report of the inquiry committee has been submitted on June 19. In this, the serious allegations made against Dr. Maravi have not been proved. No complainant had even appeared in the case. After this, Dr. Maravi was given a clean chit by the committee.

It is understood that earlier on two occasions Medical Superintendents were removed for fair investigations in Hamidia Hospital. In the first case, the then medical superintendent Dr ID Chaurasia was removed from the post when the issue of Remdesivir theft surfaced at the hospital during the Corona period. Again following fire at the hospital child unit on November 21,2021, Dr Lokendra Dave, the then medical superintendent, was removed for fair investigation. However in the nurse’s sexual harassment case, Maravi was not removed when probe against him was conducted.
