Senior physician loses vision of left eye after mob attack
In an alleged case of violence against a medical professional at Ganga Hospital in Prayagraj, a senior physician and a former professor of the Medicine Department at Allahabad Medical College, Prayagraj was allegedly brutally assaulted by attendants of a patient leading to serious vision loss in his left eye.
The doctor was subject to violence after the death of a patient who was already suffering from septicemia. It is an infection that occurs when bacteria enter the bloodstream and spread. Even though the patient had existing health problems, the family blamed the doctor for the death and violently attacked him, causing him to lose vision in one eye.
