Sambit Patra was among two doctors under the Delhi Medical Council scanner for alleged negligence in post-operative care. An 81-year-old lady, operated upon for piles by main surgeon Alok Aggarwal and Patra at NKS Hospital in 2013, did not receive any post-operative care or supervision, leading to heavy bleeding and subsequently her death within a week of the surgery. The complaint dated August 1, 2014 is “under consideration”, according to the council’s website. <ref name="economictimes.com">{{Cite web|url= https://m.economictimes.com/news/politics-and-nation/bjp-spokesman-sambit-patra-under-delhi-medical-council-lens-for-negligence-in-post-operative-care/amp_articleshow/51639670.cms |title=BJP spokesman Sambit Patra under Delhi Medical Council lens for negligence in post-operative care|date=April 16, 2016|via= economictimes.com}}</ref>
