"I wrote at least three letters to the health department on July 3, 19 and August 1. Mishra asked where was the delay, considering the long process the government payments usually take. Mishra's allegation puts director general medical education (DGME), KK Gupta , in the dock.The government appointed Dr Gupta in June this year despite several allegations of misappropriation during his previous tenure as DGME during the SP government.
