Babulal Marandi, leader of the opposition in Jharkhand, has raised objections to the advertisement for the position of RINPAS Director, alleging violations of National Medical Commission regulations.

Marandi has called for the cancellation of the recruitment advertisement, asserting that the process does not comply with NMC guidelines governing senior medical appointments. The opposition leader's intervention centres on procedural irregularities in how the position was advertised and the eligibility criteria specified.
The Regional Institute of Psychiatry and Allied Sciences (RINPAS) is a prominent medical institution in Jharkhand. Appointments to its director position typically require adherence to established regulatory frameworks set by the National Medical Commission, which oversees medical education and professional standards across India.
Marandi's objections suggest concerns about transparency and regulatory compliance in the recruitment process. The opposition leader has sought intervention to ensure that the appointment procedure aligns with NMC rules before moving forward with selections.
The matter highlights ongoing scrutiny of administrative processes in Jharkhand's medical institutions. Officials have not yet issued a formal response to the opposition leader's allegations, though the controversy may prompt a review of the advertisement and selection criteria.
