Bad Day For Middlemen In Odisha: 75 Arrested Today

Bhubaneswar: In a swift move following Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik’s directive to Chief District Medical Officers (CDMOs) to keep hospitals out of bounds for middlemen, the DGP BK Sharma initiated a statewide special drive against middlemen operating in public places. And the result – 75 of them were arrested from 16 districts of Odisha on Friday.

The public places under scanner include hospitals, medical colleges, blood banks, dispensaries and Regional Transport Offices.

To drive home the seriousness of the action, he has asked the SPs and DCPs to register specific cases against middlemen and arrest them. This will help the police to establish their links with others. They have also been directed to submit a daily Situation Report (SITREP) basis regarding action taken in different districts.\

In all, 105 middlemen have been arrested so far.
