New Delhi: The Union Ministry of Health and Family Welfare is soon going to compile the state wise information of attacks on doctors and other medical staff in Government hospitals that have happened the last three years, after a question to this effect was raised in the Rajya Sabha
MP Narayan Lal Pancharya questioned the Health Minister whether the Government has any information regarding attacks on doctors and other medical staff in Government hospitals during the last three years, asking for state wise details of incidents. The MP also questioned on the steps that Government is taking any steps to ensure the safety of doctors and other medical staff in Government hospitals
Responding to the question, the MOS health informed that Information is being collected and will be laid on the Table of the House.
In the past few years, violence against medical practitioners has been increasingly on the rise. Dissatisfied with the infrastructure at government hospitals or with the services, angry patient relatives take out their entire anger on the doctors, who for no fault of theirs bear the brunt of the situation.
