It was reported that a few days ago, the medico came back to his home from Delhi and was not willing to go back to Sir Ganga Ram Hospital citing extreme stress back there. Therefore, he insisted on staying at home for a few days before the shocking incident happened.

Urging to pay attention to the incident, the Resident Doctors Association (RDA) of GMC Jammu has asked the RDA of Sir Ganga Ram Hospital, New Delhi to throw light on the matter so that the deceased's soul might rest in peace.

"If a doctor has lost his life because of professional stress, it's our duty that the exact trigger/factor should be brought out so as to give justice to the departed soul," said RDA Jammu.
