Doctors and other medical staff boycotted work at
Bimal Singh Memorial Hospital here today in lodging protest
of assault made by one traders last night.
SDMO of the hospital
Jiteswar Ahir said that one Bishumani Roy of Manik Bhandar
assaulted doctors and paramedical staffs last night and to
lodge protest against that they went in cease-work 6
AM to 12 noon today. However, with the intervention of
Nagar Panchayat Chairperson, the boycott was
withdrawn.
On the other hand,
Bishumani Roy alleged that a serious patient was laying on
trolley and after requesting three times no doctors and
nurses came to attend him. On the other hand, the nurses
were not serious to accommodate the patient to a bed. "Once
they said there was no cabin available while next moment
they asked to wait and again said that cabin not available",
he said expressing his dismay over the incident.
"In such a situation if I
raised my voice against such careless attitude, was it my
crime? Even though I beg pardon", he added. On the other
hand, the boycott pushed the patient in deep trouble. The
patients repeatedly asking advice did not get that in
morning. However, the service only came in tune after late
afternoon.
