SHOCKING!!! Male and female cops undergo test by same male doctor

To-be-cops have to undergo a physical and medical examination that will deem them as healthy to join the services.

Be it male or female, the cops have their respective doctors and nurses assigned.

But this police recruitment centre is being faced with controversy.

Days after turmoil over “branding” of SC/ST youths during a police recruitment drive in Dhar district of Madhya Pradesh, a fresh controversy erupted on Wednesday over medical examination of female cops by male doctors in another government hospital in  Bhind district.

According to reports, medical checkups for women candidates were done by male officers and in the same room male candidates paraded semi-naked in front of women in the same room. The Madhya Pradesh government hasn’t commented on this fiasco.

 “We have issued warning letters to all the team members of the examination committee. We have also ordered an enquiry and whoever is responsible will be punished, Ajit Mishra, civil surgeon of Bhind told the reporters. On the absence of nurses, Mr Mishra said, “there are four lady doctors in the district hospital; three of whom are on medical leave…we have deputed one lady doctor and one nurse for the medical tests now.”
