Addressing to the media, vice-president of AJUCA, M. Premchandra Singh stated that on November 29, an unfortunate squabble broke out at Jiribam hospital on the alleged immoral relationship of one doctor, namely Dr. Sonachand Sharma with women. He further mentioned that there have also been reports of RKS fund, allotted under National Health Mission, being misused by Sonachand. Due to the ill-natured character of the said doctor, the dignity of the hospital has been maligned, he added.
