Two doctors were assaulted by the kin of the deceased at the Belagavi civil hospital on Monday night.
An old lady with breathlessness was brought to Belagavi civil hospital.
But the patient died and the family members about 10-15 of them attacked the doctors on duty including women doctors.
The family members alleged the patient was not treated.
Similar incidents of attack on the doctors and staff were reported earlier as well
Sometime ago the mob had even burnt an ambulance.
Unacceptable conduct to assault doctors on duty. Take strongest action legally so no such things ever happen.
Bloody idiots. This way doctors shall not be able to work. There are good and incompetent doctors but assault is just not acceptable. Goons must be given strictest punishment.
what about the doctors who did not attend the patient.
So you were at the hospital to confirm that the doctors did not treat the patient. But the patients assaulted the doctor is confirmed.
The death of a near one is emotional moment, but that does not mean we start beating up medical staff.
