Rajasthan health officials recently initiated an RGHS Irregularities Probe to address widespread fraud within state-funded health services. Consequently, the department suspended eight medical personnel with immediate effect after a preliminary investigation revealed serious misconduct. This decisive action follows a major audit into the Rajasthan Government Health Scheme. Furthermore, officials discovered serious misuse of government funds, health cards, and facilities by the accused staff. The state government aims to curb these illegal activities through strict enforcement and changes in service rules.

The latest investigation concluded that these eight individuals actively misused resources and state funds.
