A senior Medical College official said a complaint has been filed at the local police station by the state-run medical facility against doctor Debal Soren, of physiology department, who allegedly beat up the victim, Prashanto Deghoria, with bamboo pole on Thursday afternoon following an argument.
The argument began after paint spilled over Soren's parked car during renovation work by PWD in an adjacent department building, the official said.

The hospital has already initiated action against Soren and ordered an inquiry into the incident.
