Jammu, May 19: A three year old Sohan Singh son of Tara Chand resident of Nand Udhampur admitted in GMC hospital since April 16, 2014 vide MRD NO. 697316 in unit III of Government Medical College Jammu was today allegedly asked by the doctors to vacate the hospital and informed him that the hospital has no treatment for the said disease, besides there are bleak chances of survival for the patient. Following doctors advice, when the father of the victim of hospital apathy was about to leave, the people present within the hospital premises resented the move of hospital authorities and started creating hue and cry, thus forcing the hospital authorities to re admit the child. Even though the high-tech Chief Minister of Jammu and Kashmir Omar Abdullah has made his email public to seek reply and reason thereafter from common people on his party's whitewash in Parliament elections, but seems to have forgotten that majority of the voters are always poor and illiterate class who are suffering in government places like hospitals and don't know how to email and for this he (Omar) must need to visit places like hospital so that he can take first hand information from the common people and help him assessing the reason that led to the debacle of his party in the election.
While talking to "Early Times" the father of Sohan Singh, a laborer by profession said that he and all his family members put all their efforts in saving the life of child and added that the doctors' words of caution to them as there is no medicare available for the rare disorder for which the child has undergone the treatment and they better have faith in Almighty only as he cures the all.
He said that after doctor's words and advice, he decided to go back home as doctor told him that his child could not survive for more than two days. He said that he had spent all its resources for treatment of his child and added that being poor, some people collected money for him and only then he was able to purchase some medicines for his ailing child. He said that government did not provide them any help. He urged the Chief Minister Omar Abdullah to come forward for the help of his ailing child so that his life could be saved.
When contacted, doctors on duty denied the allegations and added that the child was given due medical attention and added that the minor was operated five times since he was admitted in the hospital.
The doctors said that it was the personal decision of the father of the minor child to go to home and added that doctors has no concern with the decision taken by the child's father. The doctors said that they are trying their best to save the life of the child. He further said that rest is in the hands of God.
