Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta has recommended the transfer of 39 doctors who have been serving in Tihar and Mandoli jails for five years or more.
The CM said approximately 74 transfers have been recommended as part of the exercise to improve healthcare administration and strengthen human resource management within the health department.
