On Thursday night, a passerby waiting for a death certificate peered into Yashwantrao Chavan Memorial Hospital’s post‑mortem room and found Dr. Vaibhav Avinash Mhaske slumped over a table littered with food and a bottle. The clip, posted on TikTok, shows the doctor in a state of inebriation and a chaotic scene that sparked outrage on social media, prompting the civic administration to act. Additional Commissioner Kuldeep Jangam issued a notice demanding an explanation, but when Municipal Commissioner Vijay Suryavanshi reviewed the evidence, he ordered the doctor’s suspension effective immediately and barred him from leaving Pimpri for the duration of the inquiry. PCMC will file a chargesheet against Mhaske within 15 days, after which a departmental inquiry will be conducted; meanwhile the incident has raised questions about oversight at civic‑run hospitals, where grieving families often wait hours for post‑mortem formalities.
