GORAKHPUR: A Vyapam scam accused doctor, who was suspended in 2016 and later attached to the CMO office in Deoria, has been absent from duty since November, but the officials noticed that someone has been putting signatures in the attendance register against his name. Deoria CMO Alok Pandey has ordered a probe into the incident.
CMO officials said the doctor, Gaurav Shahi, has been absent since November, but his signatures were being affixed against his name in the attendance register regularly.
Shahi was earlier posted at the Bhaluani primary health centre in the district, but was suspended by the health department in 2016 and was attached to CMO office after his name surfaced in the Vyapam scam of Madhya Pradesh.
