Aam Aadmy Party (AAP) on monday questioned the Narendra Modi government over the appointment of JP Nadda as the Union Health Minister

It claimed that he was responsible for the controversial removal recently of the Chief Vigilance Officer of AIIMS.

JP Nadda, the man who got Sanjeev Chaturvedi transferred from AIIMS, made health min? So, now Modiji will remove corruption in AIIMS through Nadda?" AAP's National Convener Arvind Kejriwal said in a tweet

Nadda, a BJP national general secretary and Rajya Sabha MP, was made the Union Health and Family Welfare Minister in the Cabinet reshuffle.

Senior AAP leader Manish Sisodia alleged that Nadda's appointment will lead to an increase in corruption and ultimately bring about a hike in the cost of health facilities at AIIMS

"Nadda is the person who played an important in removing honest officials from the Health Ministry. If people like Nadda will sit in the Health Ministry, then it is obvious that medicines and health facilities will get costlier and there will be an increase in corruption," charged Sisodia.
