The decision to remove him as deputy director comes after six different unions at AIIMS unanimously agreed and complained to Azad about alleged irregularities committed by Yadav during his tenure.

The unions said that Yadav’s presence was the primary

reason for fractures within AIIMS.

“A letter signed by Azad was sent to Union Health Secretary Sujata Rao on Wednesday and the whole process of repatriation may take up to a few months,” said a source in the health ministry.
