The courts and authorities working to uncover the full truth in the case have been probing into his omissions and commissions too as he faces several serious allegations.
Despite his resignation from his position amid protests and demands for his removal, Dr. Sandip Ghosh, the principal of RG Kar Medical College, has been under intense scrutiny following the tragic rape and murder of a junior doctor at the institution.
There have been allegations of corruption and mismanagement during his tenure, and he is currently being investigated by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI). Sandip Ghosh, immediately after his resignation, was swiftly appointed to a new position at Calcutta Medical College.
The move prompted criticism from the Calcutta High Court, which in fact ordered Ghosh to be placed on indefinite leave.
The courts and authorities working to uncover the full truth in the case have been probing into his omissions and commissions too as he faces several serious allegations.
Financial Corruption: He is accused of taking a 20% commission on tender orders and extorting money for any work done at the college.
Mismanagement: Allegations include failing students deliberately, possibly to exert control, and leasing government assets without proper authorization.
Nepotism: He allegedly favoured vendors through personal connections, awarding contracts worth crores to ineligible parties.
Ethical Violations: Claims include providing alcohol to students at his guest house and recycling medical waste improperly.
Domestic Violence: He has been accused of physically assaulting his wife shortly after she gave birth.
These allegations have led to widespread protests and a CBI investigation. The situation is still developing, and more details may emerge as the investigation
