Dr R D Nagesh is now the acting principal of the Medinirai medical college at Pokhraha in Daltonganj. This medical college has students in third year and first year and intriguingly no second year as the National Medical Commission had locked the admission here for one year 2020 - 21 citing numerous deficiencies.
It happened because the serving principal Dr Shailendra Kumar retired on September 30 and he handed over the charge to the associate professor Dr R D Nagesh, head of the department of surgery.
Dr Nagesh has been working as acting principal since October 1. He said, "I am just a stop gap arrangement. I do not know how long I will be here."
