The district magistrate J Priyadarshini said the inquiry ordered will look into how and on whose directive the data fraud took place. She said, "This is a very serious matter. We are trying so hard to ramp up testing and vaccination and then such irregularities are happening. Not just in Karpi, we will look at all healthcare centres. An FIR will be lodged, we will take action and set a standard."

She said the matter came to light during a recent inspection and added, "Two operators have been removed, but I am of the opinion that others must also be probed," she added. Bihar’s health minister Mangal Pandey, meanwhile also spoke on the matter and said that he has asked the district magistrate and the chief medical officer to look at data of other hospitals to ensure there are no errors.
