He claimed that the incident took place on the night of August 2 when a group of individuals, reportedly intoxicated, forcefully entered the hospital and threatened the intern by placing a sickle directly against his neck. However, the motive behind the act remains unclear. 

An 'X' user also shared the video in a post and wrote, "Intern doctor Dr. Himanshu Vyas was brutally attacked with a knife while on duty at Civil Hospital, Dharashiv (Osmanabad). Such violence against healthcare staff cannot be tolerated and must be addressed."

Medical Dialogues recently reported that two on-duty doctors in the emergency ward of Tripura's Govind Ballabh Pant (GBP) hospital were allegedly attacked and verbally abused by the relatives of a patient. The injured doctor, identified as Dr Litan Das, was admitted to the same hospital after he suffered multiple injuries. He is, however, out of danger, the official said.
