Sanchita Chatterjee,
BS News, Agency, Kolkata: Dr. Purnendu Roy, Chairman and Managing Director of
Genesis Hospital Kasba, claimed that the news circulating about the
cancellation of the hospital's license is completely baseless and fake. At a
press conference held at the Kolkata Press Club on December 22, 2025, he stated
that Genesis Hospital Kasba's license has never been cancelled and is currently
fully valid. The Honorable High Court issued a stay order on December 16, 2024,
on the order dated December 12, 2024, of the Clinical Establishment Regulatory
Commission in the compensation case filed by patient Pranab Ghosh.
Simultaneously, the subsequent order regarding license cancellation was also
challenged in the High Court, and the state authorities have been instructed
not to implement that order. Dr. Roy further stated that Genesis Hospital Kasba
is continuing to provide patient services normally, 24x7x365 days a year.
Medical, surgical, and other services are continuing as before. He requested
the general public not to be misled by rumors and fake news.
