Early Times Report  

Jammu, May 24: Taking the Government Medical College (GMC) and Hospital Jammu, administration head on, the Resident Doctors Association (RDA) has questioned the inaction of administration over drip reaction cases for the last two years. Moreover, they have also cornered the administration for non-availability of essential drugs for common patients but available for VIPs and VVIPs and close ones and relatives of ministers and bureaucrats.
In the backdrop of suspension of a doctor over alleged negligence, which led to death of a patient, RDA president Dr Neeraj Sharma told Early Times that frequency of Drip reactions has markedly increased over the last 2 years and it has been repeatedly brought into the notice of the Medical Superintendent, Dr Ravinder Rattan Pal and Principal GMC Jammu, Dr Ghanshyam Dev. Despite all reminders, with dozens in written, the administration failed to take appropriate corrective measures."
Questioning the suspension of Medicine Registrar Dr Sushil Pandita on Saturday, RDA GMC Jammu and Associated Hospitals sought impartial enquiry into the whole episodes of drip reactions over the last two years. It is penitent to mention that a patient was died at GMC hospital as allegedly negligence of Dr Sushil Pandita and later Dr Sushil was suspended by Principal of GMC hospital.

He also took strong concern about, what they called, the dictatorial, unethical, highly highhandedness and deplorable attitude of the administration particularly principal, Dr Ghanshyam Dev, for doing suspensions without conducting any impartial inquiry. "This administration is fond of destroying the morale of its workforce by imposing dictators like Dr Ghanshyam Dev Principal GMC Jammu and incompetent MS Dr Rattan Pal. We want immediate enquires to fix role in non availabilities of Trollies, Oxygen lines in wards , drinking water for patients and their attendants in emergencies and non availability of essential drugs in emergency and how they become available to VIPs and VVIPs at the behest of politicians", they said.Pertinently, in the last few months, the cases of drip reactions were reported and the administration had not taken any action or holds any enquiry. Sources alleged that last month the three cases were reported in emergency ward of GMC hospital and brought to notice of administration but all in vain. When contacted Principal Dr Ghanshyam Dev and MS Dr Ravinder Rattan Pal didn't pickup calls.
