Udhampur, Mar 11: While the blast victims in Udhampur hospital were in dire need of medical care, the concerned medical officer was absent from the duty in an unauthorised manner.
An order from the Medical Superintendent of District Hospital Udhampur sought explanation from Dr. Shivani Kotwal the concerned Medical Officer stating that failing the same may lead to disciplinary action against her for dereliction of duties.

The order further claimed that Dr. Kotwal is habitual of remaining absent from her duty.
On the condition of not being named a patient said that the nurses on night duty leave the hospital at 6 am while they are supposed to remain on duty till their reliever arrives.
He also said what if some emergency arises in absence of nurses
appeal to medical superintendent of district hospital Udhampur action should be done against such nurses who are doing their duties as irresponsible behaviour”, he added.
