RAIPUR: Chhattisgarh politics is on the boil after corruption in government-run DKS hospital came to the fore, in which administration booked an FIR against former chief minister Raman Singh's son-in-law and former medical superintendent Dr Puneet Gupta.
RTI activists on Sunday staged a protest in the police station and demanded that an FIR be filed against Raman Singh and former health minister Ajay Chandakar to probe the irregularity in hiring and machine installation at the hospital.

The Forum Whistleblower CG activists complained to the police in writing, stating that Raman Singh also held the portfolio of finance ministry during his tenure, and hence the ongoing in DKS hospital would have happened with his and higher BJP leaders' consent.
The Forum members alleged, that the corruption took place in the knowledge of the former chief minister as the process of issuing finances must have followed after invitation of tender and approval of projects at various levels.
Activist Mamta Sharma told TOI, "Police has booked our complaint under Section 120 B of Indian Penal Code."
