💨 Abstract

The Allahabad High Court has directed the Uttar Pradesh government to formulate a policy to prevent government doctors from practicing privately, as they are allegedly referring patients to private hospitals for money, neglecting their duties in government hospitals. The court's order comes after a petition was filed over a complaint of wrong treatment at a private nursing home. The government has been asked to enforce the 1983 order that bars government doctors from private practice.
