Covid gaps in the open: Bihar CM promises action, some heads roll; Centre seeks report

-The Indian Express

After RJD’s Manoj Jha flags Express reports in Rajya Sabha, Vice President Venkaiah Naidu says issue important; Bihar govt suspends 9.

Patna: BIHAR CHIEF Minister Nitish Kumar Friday said that action is being taken on the findings of The Indian Express investigation that revealed glaring gaps in the state’s Covid testing data even as his government suspended nine Health personnel, including five senior officials, in Jamui district from where “irregularities were detected… in particular”. The Centre has sought a “detailed report” from the Bihar government on the findings.

This came on the day RJD MP Manoj Jha referred to The Indian Express reports in the Rajya Sabha and demanded “a high-level probe”. In response, the Rajya Sabha chairman, Vice President M Venkaiah Naidu, suggested to Union Health Minister Harsh Vardhan that the issue “is a subject for inquiry”.

A senior Central government official told The Indian Express that the Union Health Ministry has sent a letter to the Bihar government seeking “a detailed report on the matter”.
