Even as the Payal Tadvi suicide case rages on, five resident doctors from Grant Medical College at JJ Hospital have complained against a senior lecturer for abusive behaviour

Five resident doctors (medicine) attached to the Grant Medical College and JJ Group of hospitals have complained against Shah
While the plea of Dr Payal Tadvi's family about her harassment was unheard by Nair Hospital authorities, the Grant Medical College administration doesn't want to take such incidents lightly. Five resident doctors (medicine) attached to the Grant Medical College and JJ Group of hospitals, have complained against an assistant professor (orthopedic), for allegedly shouting and being abusive after his aged relative, a patient there, was allegedly not taken care of. An internal committee has been formed to inquire into the alleged incident.
The Assistant Professor, Dr Nadir Shah, has rubbished the allegations, saying they were made to divert attention from his complaint against the medicine unit resident doctors and its head. While the hospital dean Dr Ajay Chandanwale and MARD representatives are awaiting the internal committee's report on the complaint, on Friday evening he claimed the matter was sorted. Asked about the action taken, Dr Chandanwale said, "It is an internal issue, which we have sorted and it is confidential."
