In the government healthcare facility nestled in Bharamasagar village, located in the heart of Chitradurga, Karnataka, an unusual spectacle unfolded. A prenuptial scene was meticulously staged, mimicking the ambiance of a surgical procedure. The clandestine footage of this peculiar event surfaced on various social media platforms, triggering a barrage of criticism directed at the soon-to-be-wedded couple.
Promptly catching the attention of District Collector T Venkatesh, an official order was swiftly issued, leading to the abrupt termination of Dr. Abhishek’s contract. Dr. Abhishek, who had been rendering services as a contractual medical practitioner in the hospital, faced dismissal on grounds of objectionable conduct and neglect of professional duties.
According to available accounts, Dr. Abhishek was on the brink of matrimony. The video in question depicted him assuming the role of a surgeon, with his prospective spouse actively participating in the charade. The concluding frames of the footage captured the patient, seemingly having undergone a procedure, briefly rising from the operating table.
In response to the incident, Dr. Renu Prasad, the District Health Officer of Chitradurga, expressed disapproval, emphasizing that disciplinary measures had been initiated against Dr. Abhishek, previously appointed as a medical officer under the National Health Mission (NHM) on a contractual basis. Dr. Prasad shed light on the misuse of the operation theater, which had been temporarily closed for several months. Despite this closure, the doctor chose this venue for a pre-wedding shoot, prompting an official notice from the healthcare facility. Dr. Prasad asserted that a thorough investigation would be conducted, leading to appropriate actions being taken.
