Vanchit Bahujan Aghadi activist Ritesh Gaikwad and social activist Dadasaheb Gaikwad exposed the incident.
As a result, a case has been registered against a doctor and his colleagues at the Yerwada Police Station.
Dadasaheb serves destitute patients by admitting injured persons found on the streets to Sassoon. One year ago, he admitted a patient for treatment at Sassoon. However, the next day, when they went to see the patient, Dadasaheb found that he had disappeared. Upon inquiry, they discovered that the doctor had taken the patient away at night and did not bring him back. This incident prompted him to keep a check on hospital activities.
On Monday, at 1.30 am, Ritesh was standing outside the hospital with a rickshaw. One of the doctors at Sassoon inquired whether he would drop off a patient.
Ritesh questioned how the patient could be left alone without a relative. The doctor responded that he usually pays ₹500 to their regular rickshaw driver to handle it. As directed by the doctor, hospital staff placed a severely injured patient, whose legs were missing and with a needle in his hand, into the rickshaw.
The doctor and his colleague, along with the rickshaw carrying the patient, drove to a thick banyan tree in Vishrantwadi. The doctor left the patient under the tree in the dark and rain.
