New Delhi, August 17: AIIMS director P Venugopal will continue as director of India's most prestigious medical institute, at least for now.
Venugopal has been on a collision course with Health Minister Anbumani Ramadoss. Venugopal had challenged his sacking in court and the court will now hear the matter on November 7.
He will continue as director till then. He was asked to vacate his seat over allegations that he had violated the moral code of conduct during the anti-quota strikes.
This decision was taken during an AIIMS governing body meet in early July. The Delhi High court on July 7 stayed the recommendation to sack the AIIMS Director.
Ramadoss and all other parties were given time until now to answer the court's questions.
