Bhind (Madhya Pradesh): Collector Sanjeev Shrivastava found three doctors absent from duty in the district hospital during an inspection on Thursday. Shrivastava directed the civil surgeon Dr Anil Goyal to issue a show-cause to dentist Dr Vishal for not doing the X-ray. He told Dr Goyal to issue show-cause notices to three doctors who absented themselves from duty. He said private ambulances found on the premises of the hospital would be confiscated.
He also checked the quality of food given to the patients who complained that they were not getting food according to the menu prescribed by the government. Shrivastava directed Dr Goyal to impose a penalty on the food supply contractor.
He got angry with those who did not vacate the houses on the hospital premises after their retirement. Collector Sanjeev Shrivastava inspected the district hospital on Wednesday. The hospital management provided food to the patients. But a contractor from Kolkata, Rupa Enterprises, has been assigned the job. Because the quality of food is not up to the mark, many patients refuse it.
