Mangalore, June 28: The lives of female staff at E.S.I Hospital have turned miserable because of Dr. Gopalkrishna K, who is harassing them mentally as well as sexually, alleged Rajaram T, member, Karnataka Dalit Sangharsha Samithi(DSS).

Addressing the media persons here on Tuesday, he said that Nalini, who has been working in the hospital for the last 31 years, had been cheated by Dr. Gopalkrishna. “She had submitted an application asking for loan along with another staff Gita. Nalini's application was rejected by Gopalkrishna citing government reasons. But at the same time her application was used to forge her thumb impression as well as her signature to provided loan to Gita on her assurance. When Nalini came to know about this conspiracy, she asked to give back her application but in the return was assaulted by Gopalkrishna”, Rajaram alleged.

Rajaram groused that police officers also rejected to file a case against Gopalkrishna, following which a case of passing the loan with forge signature has been filed at second additional CJM court.

He also said that a number of female staff have written letters to the health minister and deputy commissioner complaining the ill nature of their superior demanding his dismissal so that they can feel secure in their working place.

Ramesh Kotyan, District Convener, Karnataka Dalit Sangharsh Samithi, Rohit Ullal, Kiran Kumar, and Keshav, Husband of Nalini were present at the meet.
