Sub: Poor state of Government hospitals
in our city.
Sir
I write to your esteemed self to express my deep concern and anguish over the poor state of the government hospital in Jammu. As you already know there is an outbreak of epidemic of dengue and chikanguniya all across the nation. In this situation, my brother was affected by dengue unfortunately. We rushed him to the government hospital in desperation. We did not know the shocking surprises we would meet at the hospital.
As we reached there, we did not find anyone at the emergency. In the name of a nurse, we found her dozing in a corner. The doctor on duty was not to be seen anywhere. The hygiene and the cleanliness at the emergency was horrible. As I went to the reception, I found the desk deserted. Seeing the poor state of affairs, the family decided to rush to Dyanand Medical College and Hospital.
If we had not rushed my brother to that hospital, any tragedy could have happened! I felt so outraged the Government operated hospitals afterwards! What a sheer wastage of national resources, the tax money of us, the taxpayers! What is the good of such government hospitals which are as good as nothing? Why does the government not privatize such hospitals?
Now, I on behalf of all the citizens of our state have decided to bring the attention of the concerned authorities to the problem through the medium of your esteemed newspaper. I am hopeful that you will help me by publishing this letter in your reputed daily.
Yours truly,
Suraj
