New Delhi, May 8: The BJP on Thursday demanded sacking of Health Minister Anbumani Ramadoss in the wake of Supreme Court striking down a law which ensured the exit of AIIMS Director Dr P Venugopal.

Besides demanding sacking of the embattled Health Minister, the party also targetted Prime Minister Manmohan Singh for “failing” to protect the premier institute of national importance.

“I demand the resignation of Ramadoss and if he is not resigning I want the Prime Minister to dismiss him forthwith,” senior BJP leader Sushma Swaraj said in New Delhi.

She described the Supreme Court’s ruling as the “defeat of Ramadoss and his malafide intentions and the defeat of the Prime Minister and his government.” “The Supreme Court striking down the AIIMS Amendment Act has established that Health Minister Ramadoss’ intention was malafide and dishonest,” she said.

She said the apex court’s ruling has established that the Health Minister has “misused” the Parliament for satisfying his personal ego.
