Quack flees After Patient Dies During Treatment
Etah: A quack running a private clinic in Nagla Bhajj village in Aliganj has been accused of medical negligence that allegedly led to the death of a 22-year-old man during treatment. In response, authorities launched an investigation into the illegal medical practice on Wednesday.
According to the PTI news report, Chief Medical Superintendent Umesh Kumar Tripathi said, “We have received information about a young man’s death in Aliganj, though no formal complaint has been filed yet. Based on the available information, an inquiry will be conducted, and strict action will follow.”
The incident took place at Jayprakash Clinic at the Nagla Bhajj village in Aliganj, where Durvesh (22) was brought by his family for treatment for vomiting and diarrhea on Tuesday.
His family alleged that the doctor administered multiple bottles of intravenous fluids throughout the night but refused to allow them to shift Durvesh elsewhere even as his condition worsened.
