The Operation Theatres (OT)s are closed, Dialysis Units are non functional, shortage of water due to which the centralize Air Conditioners are not working even Out Patient Department (OPD), when last reports come in, is not functioning for last some days.
"Due to which the attendants are worried and continuously asking to doctors and hospital authority about the medical services but they have got nothing so fare despite assurance, "they stated and adding that it shows that how interrupted medical services are being provided by State Health and Medical Education Department to the people of Jammu Province.
