In the viral video, Sunil Pal was heard saying that 90% of doctors are dressed in ‘demon suit’ while the other 10% are actually working to make things better. Sunil’s criticising jokes comes at a time when the healthcare system in India is overburdened due to the second wave of COVD 19. Doctors are working day in and day out to curtail the spread of the virus.

The police have filed an FIR against Sunil Pal under sections 500 (defamation) and 505 (2) (public mischief) of the IPC (Indian Penal Code). No arrest has been made yet, but the investigation is on.
