“However, RDGMC has gifted 40 deaths to the city in return. Careless treatment has led to the demise of many innocent persons including Laxmi Bai, who died as the ICU of the RDGMC did not open,” he added.
“Similarly, Manoj Chaudhary also died for the want of treatment while BJP corporator Mujaffer Hussain died Not only this, the height of the negligence can be gauged from the fact that a living patient Aziz was declared dead.
