Minister Appalaraju furious with errant doctors
The Minister expressed angry that not even a single doctor was present in the hospital including the superintendent. During his surprise visit, the Minister got first-hand information about the hospital. He lamented that without a single doctor on duty, the patients are facing untold problems.
The Minister said that there are 50 beds in the hospital and not a single doctor was on duty. There was no doctor even to see OP patients, he added. Appalaraju said that he received complaints about the hospital and during his sudden visit, he got to know everything. The Minister assured that disciplinary action will be taken against the negligent doctors. “I will visit the hospital everyday till the hospital staff works normally,” he added.
It should be noted here that Minister Appalaraju ran a private hospital in Palasa before he entered politics.
