IAS puts Foot on Hospital Bed, Pays the price!
By: Tupaki Desk | 7 May 2016 10:35 AM GMTAn IAS Officer in Chhattisgarh invited trouble by placing his foot on a hospital bed when he has gone for an inspection. The picture which went viral sparked social media outrage.
Jagdish Sonkar, a 2013-batch IAS Officer, went to a government run Nutrition Rehabilitation Centre for a routine inspection. While he was interacting with the mothers of malnourished children, Sonkar had put his left foot on the bed. A person present there clicked the picture and shared it online.
What Jagdish Sonkar has done need to be treated as disrespectful to patients and women. Being a person with an MBBS Degree, How could ignore the fact that such acts could result in infections.
After the backlash, Jagdish Sonkar faced suspension. Chhattisgarh CM Raman Singh directed General Administration Department to train new officers in social behaviour and public interaction before sending for duty.
