The arrest was made based on a complaint filed by the Anti-Quackery & Vigilance Wing of the Assam Medical Council.

According to officials, Bhattacharjee had been running a clinic named “Guwahati Ayurved Bhawan” in Rehabari for the past 20 years. The chamber, reportedly operated under the supervision of Rajasthan Aushadhalaya Private Limited, catered to patients with all kinds of ailments.

The fake doctor displayed a board claiming himself to be BAMS. MD (AYUSH) and allegedly introduced himself as a cancer specialist and critical illness expert.

The long-running fraud came to light recently after a patient from Barpeta allegedly received wrong treatment at his clinic.

Following the Assam Medical Council’s Vigilance Unit’s intervention, police launched an operation and arrested Bhattacharjee from his chamber in Rehabari.
