There seems to be a flaw also in the process of empanelling the labs. It should have been probed if they were approved by the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) before their empanellment. But this was not done. This is a matter of investigation," the DM C Ravi Shankar said."The matter was being investigated on the district administration level and on Dehradun level as well.

In this connection, a case has been lodged against Max corporate agency and two private labs," he added.The officer said that after the preliminary investigation, the further probe is underway and it can take up to 10 more days. Other sections will also be added to the case on the basis of the report.He informed that in the Dehradun-level investigation, it was found that as many as 1 lakh test reports were produced by only one lab which is impossible, adding that discrepancies in data entry have also been found.Uttrakhand government registered a case against two private labs and Max Corporate Limited agency in this connection.
