The Delhi government has cancelled the registration of 33 private hospitals and nursing homes in the city due to various reasons, including failure to meet infrastructural requirement.
Top officials in the Health department said that the registration of a number of hospitals and nursing homes have been cancelled as they failed to appoint adequate manpower and improve infrastructure despite repeated reminders.

The officials said that the government will file cases against the defaulting hospitals if they continue to operate.
'No hospital can operate in the city without government registration. We will file cases in the courts if any hospital is found to be continuing their services even despite the cancellation of registration,' they said.
