But, Additional Chief Secretary S K Rakesh has been appointed as Health Secretary. The investigation will be done by Secretary Kiran Gitte and Finance Secretary Tanushree Debbarma.

Ratanlal Nath said, “Few newspapers have alleged corruption in NHM items purchasing. Following those reports, Chief Minister has ordered inquiry. Whoever is responsible will be immediately punished. Such an order by any CM whether given in past, I do not have any such knowledge”.
