Following public outcry, both local authorities and AIIMS administration said they will take action. The in-charge of Bhadohi Police Station, Shivakant Pandey, reportedly said that while no formal complaint has been lodged, any such complaint will be promptly addressed. Deputy Medical Superintendent of AIIMS, Dr Suyash Singh, has condemned the violence, maintaining that appropriate measures will be taken to address the matter.
However, skepticism remains high among the public regarding the effectiveness of these assurances, given the lack of tangible action taken thus far. With demands for accountability growing louder, the spotlight remains firmly on AIIMS Raebareli and its handling of patient safety and staff conduct.
