An orthopedic surgeon of a civil hospital here was arrested today for allegedly raping a patient, police said.
The victim in her complaint to the police on Friday had alleged that she recently visited Dr Arvind Jindal at Gurgaon civil hospital following pain in her leg which was operated upon by him two years ago, a senior police officer said.
