An Anti-Corruption Branch (ACB) team on Tuesday raided the Delhi government-run LNJP Hospital in a case related to alleged supply of sub-standard medical and surgical equipment, officials said.

The team questioned staffers and officials of the hospital, and also seized some documents related to the case, a senior ACB officer said.

The ACB team was at the hospital for around three hours.

Responding to the raid, the Delhi government in a statement said all the “sub-standard items were bought from the central government’s portal called GeM (Government e Marketplace)” and added this should be investigated by a central agency such as the CBI.

On January 5, an FIR was registered by the ACB in connection with the alleged supply of sub-standard quality medical and surgical equipment in six Delhi government-run hospitals, including the LNJP Hospital, the officials said.
