The local administration of Magura has suspended the operation of one private clinic, three private hospitals and three diagnostics centres for irregularities.

Civil Surgeon of Magura Pradeep Kumar Saha said the local administration visited different hospitals and clinics on Friday and suspended the operations of the clinic, hospitals and diagnostic centres as the authorities concerned failed to show valid documents. The establishments include New Ekota Clinic, Ma Private Hospital, Kings Private Hospital, Grameen Diagnostic Centre, Labscan Diagnostic Centre and Desh Private Hospital.

Besides, the hospitals, clinics and diagnostic centers have no waste management system and these are running with inadequate manpower.

The government on November 11 launched inspection of private hospitals and diagnostic centres across the country after collecting their lists from divisional directors.

The government’s move came after the death of a police officer in a psychiatric hospital in the capital.
