Police seal ‘fake’ paediatrician's clinic in UP's Bhadohi; FIR lodged
Bhadohi (PTI): Authorities in Uttar Pradesh's Bhadohi district have sealed a children's clinic and hospital after its operator was allegedly found treating patients with a fake medical degree, officials said on Tuesday.
An FIR was lodged late Monday night against Ramesh Yadav, who ran the Govind Prabha Clinic and Baby Centre in the Abholi area, they said.
Chief Medical Officer (CMO) Santosh Kumar Chak said a probe was ordered following complaints about the clinic.
The investigation, conducted by Deputy CMO Ashish Dubey on October 25, revealed that Yadav did not possess any valid medical qualification, he said.
“No registration record of the hospital was found with the health department, and the degree he presented was found to be fake," Chak said.
Following the inquiry, the clinic was sealed, and the medical superintendent of Duraganj Community Health Centre, Shubhankar Srivastava, was directed to file a police complaint, the CMO said.
Local police station in-charge Ajit Kumar Srivastava said an FIR has been registered against Yadav under sections related to cheating and impersonation, as well as provisions of the Indian Medical Council Act, for practising medicine without authorisation.

Firms being arm-twisted to divert investment from Karnataka: Priyank Kharge
New Delhi (PTI): Companies are being arm-twisted to divert their investments from Karnataka despite the state having the best talent ecosystem, state's IT, biotech and rural development minister Priyank Kharge said on Friday.
The minister said it has taken 40 years to develop the entire ecosystem in the state that suits investors.
"Why is semiconductor going to Gujarat, Assam? That's my question? That's what I have been asking. Why is it going to Gujarat? Why is it going to Assam? When PLI comes, they have to choose their state. The name is Karnataka. How does it become Gujarat by the time the application reaches Delhi? They are coming to my state. Why are they being arm-twisted to Gujarat?" Kharge said.
He was speaking to reporters on the sidelines of a roadshow in the national capital for the Bengaluru Tech Summit 2026 to be held in November.
"They are coming to our state only. They want to invest in our state. It works out for them. It is profitable for them. Our human resource is one of the most agile and best in the world. But yet, they are going to be pushed to Gujarat," Kharge said.
During the event, Kharge said Karnataka is planning to rejig policy on data centres to promote sustainable data centres.
"There is a serious need for states and the central government to bring up policies for sustainable data centres. That's exactly what the government of Karnataka intends to do," Kharge said.
