The alleged scam was discovered in August 2023 when it was discovered that certain medical professionals and employees at seven Mohalla Clinics in the South-West, Shahdara, and North-East districts were using unethical methods to record patient attendance. Payments have allegedly been given to private laboratories in response to thousands of fraudulent tests. It is alleged that the scheme involves hundreds of crores.[1][2][3] The investigation report states that the outsourced laboratories recommended up to 20,000 tests, either on "0" digit or blank cell numbers. The scandal, according to the L-G's office, is worth hundreds of crores.[4] The health department's report, which was sent to the lieutenant governor, also stated that patients' registration and purported lab tests were done using fake cellphone numbers.[5][6][7]
There are claims that hundreds of "fake" lab tests have been performed at the neighbourhood clinics established to offer free primary healthcare to Delhi residents.[8][9] This occurs just days after it was revealed that Delhi's state-run hospitals were receiving subpar medication supplies, and the Enforcement Directorate served Arvind Kejriwal with its third summons in connection with the "scam" surrounding the excise policy.[10] In response to the current allegations, Delhi Health Minister Saurabh Bharadwaj stated that they had received a complaint about it on September 20. As a result, 26 medical staff members had their services terminated with a warning of severe consequences.[11]
The Central Bureau of Investigation, has been requested by Delhi Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena to look into allegations of corruption made against the AAP-run Mohalla Clinics in Delhi.[12][13][14][15]
