RAJIV NAYAN AGRAWAL

BHABHUA-----------------------Sudhu Singh of Barki Devkali of Mohania police station area informed that we have come with our patient for medicine but the counter is not open yet. Water has filled all around the hospital and we are facing a lot of trouble.

Mohania sub-divisional hospital of Kaimur district of Bihar has turned into a pond at present. Dirty water from the drain has entered many rooms including the hospital premises, emergency ward of the trauma center, medicine counter, ticket counter. Patients and their relatives are forced to get treatment amidst this dirty water. Even the building of the trauma center has become dilapidated. Its false ceiling also broke and fell down amidst the heavy rain since Wednesday morning. It was fortunate that no one was present at that time, otherwise a big incident could have happened. At the same time, the hospital officials are saying that due to the slackness in the work of the drain being built on the roadside, the dirty water of the city drain is entering the hospital premises.

Sudhu Singh of Barki Devkali of Mohania police station area informed that we have come with our patient for medicine but the counter is not open yet. Water has filled all around the hospital and we are facing a lot of problems. Hospital worker Pushpa Devi said that when we reached the subdivision hospital Mohania for duty at 8:00 am, we saw that dirty water from the drain has entered all the rooms and corridors of the campus, wards and trauma center. It has been raining since this morning and we are providing our services amidst this dirty water.

Hospital in-charge Dr. Vijay Kumar said that the construction of the drain on the roadside has been incomplete for a long time. As a result, the dirty water of the city drain starts accumulating inside the hospital premises after rain. This water has accumulated even today. The trauma center is a little lower due to which it is entering. If the drain had been constructed, the dirty water would not have entered the hospital premises. The trauma center has become dilapidated and very soon we are going to vacate it.
