There have been cases of clarity clashes between doctors and people on influential positions. A similar case has happened in Guntur. A video from Guntur's Narasaraopet in which the Collector was seen shouting at a doctor went viral. In the video, Guntur Collector Samuel Anand was seen yelling at a government doctor from Nadendla Primary Healthcare Centre. A leading daily spoke to Dr Somla Naik, the doctor who was at the receiving end of the collector’s anger, to find out what had exactly occurred. Speaking to a leading daily, the doctor said he had only put a genuine concern about the lack of beds at the Nadendla Primary Healthcare Centre due to which some old people had to be sent back home.

He said, “I raised a concern to which the collector responded angrily. He dismissed it as lies. The Collector lost his cool in front of the entire medical staff who had come for the review meeting. It was very insulting." The doctor further added, “It is demotivating when you are given a response like this when concerns are raised. Both the collector and I are working to serve the people during the pandemic. He threatened to suspend me several times during the interaction. I then told him it would be difficult to work if this is how he is going to react to concerns raised. I also offered to resign."

According to the doctor, when the collector threatened to suspend him several times, he too lost his cool. He responded by saying, “Who are you to suspend me?”. The collector purportedly got further angered by this. What happened after this was captured in the video that later went viral.
