Unfortunate: Delhi based anesthesiologist and OT technician lose life in hit and run accident

Dr. Rashmi talking about her husband's dreams added, "He would say I want to give employment to at least 100 people and provide treatment to as many people as I can." Having undergone two hip surgeries, she was at home and had been confined to bed for a while. They were discussing when she could head back to work.

Kumar is survived by his wife and two children aged 15 and 12 years and he was the sole breadwinner. Both the medical technician's parents died a year ago and his siblings live separately.

His brother, Harish Kumar, told TOI, "Manish's wife and children were completely dependent on him for everything. All his life he worked in an operation theatre and helped others, but when it came to someone helping him, no one did. We waited in the hospital from 3 pm to 8 pm, but nobody came to treat him for his injuries."

Denying the accusations, the Venkateshwara Hospital told "He was seen by a qualified gastrointestinal surgeon and a general surgeon, and investigations were carried out promptly in the emergency ward itself. It was a sudden deterioration and due to no active bleeding so the qualified surgeons decided not to operate."

Harish said his brother was a Covid warrior who had even carried oxygen cylinders on his back for the use of patients. "We have asked Delhi's health minister for compensation because Manish was a contract employee and wasn't eligible for benefits like regular employees."

An incident of negligence and rash driving that resulted in death has been reported at Najafgarh police station, but no arrests have been made, and the errant vehicle remains unidentified.
