In a shocking incident, a state-run hospital in West Bengal was vandalised by friends and family members after the death of a patient on Friday (1 May) morning, reports NDTV.
However, her condition deteriorated and within a few hours she passed away. After her death, the angry relatives and friends smashed the glass windows and ransacked the emergency ward. A number of healthcare workers were also attacked by the unruly mob and some of them were injured.
As per reports, the police deployed outside the hospital was outnumbered by the unruly mob. Consequently, a huge police force from the Belghoria police station had to be rushed to the hospital to bring the situation under control.
Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
