Madurai: A female daily wage worker employed at Government Rajaji Hospital (GRH) was sacked after complaints arose that the woman has been employed despite being released from the prison only around four months ago.
The woman, Gowri, was employed as a daily wage worker at the Department of Surgery at GRH, shortly after being released from prison. Though initially there were rumours that she had previously been sent to jail regarding her involvement in a case related to child kidnapping at GRH, the hospital dean Dr Sangumani J denied the rumours.
“After we received complaints from daily wage workers, we came to know that the woman had only shortly been released from jail in a case related to her private affair. We later held an inquiry as well regarding her appointment and removed her from service,” he said.
The dean also said that an inquiry was held in the presence of a professor from the Department of Surgery and that Gowri herself admitted that she was indeed released from jail four months ago.
“The appointment of daily wage workers happens at the levels of Resident Medical Officer (RMO) and Sergeant on a daily basis. There has also been no evidence of any wrongdoing by senior officials. As soon as we found the complaint valid, we removed her. The matter has been put to rest,” added Dr Sangumani.
