Bhubaneswar: The Bhubaneswar Municipal Corporation (BMC) on Tuesday issued a show-cause notice to a pathological laboratory in the city for issuing fake COVID vaccination certificate.
In its notice to GenX Diagnostics in Saheed Nagar, the BMC has stated that a news item has been published in vernacular daily ‘Sambad’ mentioning that the laboratory has issued fake certificate of COVID vaccination.
