"The incumbent Principal is lack of vision to improve things and failed to meet the deficiencies pulled up by Medical Council of India viz no medical journals were purchased, no scope of digitalization as following old traditions, less interest to interact with medical faculty, restricting faculty to access auditorium, Hostels san basic amenities, library sans books but Principal didn't show to redressal these issues instead of supporting a controversial doctor of surgery department, "they further added.
They said due to her poor interest to streamline and providing better services to the people, the Chopra Nursing Home was shut down for more than three months resulting patients are being fleeced by the private players who cares.
