Padgotra expressed his indignation and wrath against the administration of J&K which claimed that adequate modern facilities were being provided to the public but contrariwise no such facilities have been provided. Further, Padgotra expressing his anxiety said, “if such modern facilities have been provided then why such a huge number of deaths of innocent have occurred.”
He said that the work of AIIMS at Vijaypur was started 5 years back but still on the ground, no work has been done, which was a matter of much concern and it was also a matter of gigantic anxiety. He said the public of Jammu was asking the reasons for deaths of 200 children.
He said that the report suggested that there was only one doctor in Medical College Jammu for the treatment of gastroenteritis. Besides, in the Endoscopy section, there was only one technician whereas in SKIMS Srinagar there were five doctors of gastroenteritis and 15 technicians of Endoscopy.
“In addition to this, there was also another discrimination in Medical College Jammu in comparison with the SKIMS Srinagar,” as observed by Padgotra. (HS):
