According to the district consumer rights department and local sources, Sukumar Vaidya has been providing medical services and prescriptions to patients for a long time by opening a pharmacy called ‘Vaidya Medical Hall’ in Dhalla Bazar, Singair. For this he used to charge Rs 100-200 to patients. Some patients who were recently misled into giving prescriptions without being doctors verbally reported the matter to the Department of Consumer Rights Protection. Asaduzzaman Rumel, deputy director of the district’s consumer rights protection department, raided the pharmacy in Dhalla Bazar on Wednesday afternoon on the instructions of Deputy Commissioner SM Ferdous. The young man was fined 25,000 taka at that time.

Asaduzzaman Rumel, deputy director of the department, said the patient must have an MBBS degree and be registered with the BMDC to receive treatment and prescriptions. Sukumar has none of this. He has been fined Tk 25,000 under article 44 of the Consumer Protection Law. At the same time, the young man pretended not to cheat with patients by posing as a doctor.
