Home Minister V. Anitha met the family members of Dr K. Sudhakar here on Friday.
Dr Sudhakar used to work in Narsipatnam Area Hospital in Anakapalli district. During the year 2020, he had criticised the then government, for allegedly failing to provide PPE kits, masks and other protective gear to the doctors providing COVID-19 treatment at hospitals.
