Chandigarh: In a bid to improve the health infrastructure and provide top-notch facilities to people in government hospital, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has issued fresh orders asking all government doctors to certify that they do not have any private practice.

The move aims at bolstering the quality treatment in hospitals as promised by the AAP government during poll campaigns.

At present, many government doctors run private clinics after working hours, which impacts thief efficiency and it is also against service rules, said a senior administration official.

According to the new orders, AAP asked civil surgeons and senior medical officers (SMO) in their respective districts to ensure all doctors in their jurisdiction did not have a private practice. If a doctor found indulging in private practice, along with the concerned doctor action will also be initiated against SMO, officials said.
