LUCKNOW: A video of a patient lying on the floor of a government hospital in Kushinagar, Uttar Pradesh covered in blood has surfaced on social media. In the video a stray dog is also seen near the patient in the emergency ward. The 28-second video shot in a district hospital in eastern Uttar Pradesh shows the ward with empty beds and no doctor or nurse around. The stray dog was also seen walking past the bleeding patient and sniffing the blood.
Dr SK Verma, the hospital in-charge, said that the man was an accident victim and he was drunk and fell off the bed several times during treatment. He was later shifted to a hospital in Gorakhpur. The doctor claims that the doctor and the ward boy were in another ward when the video was shot. Meanwhile, District Magistrate Sai informed that a report has been sent to the health department against the doctor on duty in the district hospital.
