Nexus Between Specialized Doctors and Private Nursing Home Allegedly Disrupting Healthcare Services at DH Pulwama and DH Shopian
Pulwama/Shopian: Government health institutions, District Hospital (DH) Pulwama and DH Shopian, are allegedly in turmoil due to a nexus between a group of specialized doctors and Mohmodiya Nursing Home, located in Gangoo, Pulwama. This alleged collaboration has reportedly created a “healthcare mafia,” significantly affecting the services provided at these government-run hospitals, leaving poor patients to bear the brunt of mismanaged care.
Sources from within the hospitals claim that several doctors and paramedical staff members have been abandoning their duties during working hours to engage in private practices at the nursing home. These illegal practices are said to exacerbate the suffering of low-income patients, who are often left unattended during critical hours.
Locals have expressed growing frustration over the situation, accusing these healthcare professionals of exploiting their positions and neglecting their responsibilities. With many specialized doctors frequently absent from duty, the quality of healthcare services at DH Pulwama and DH Shopian has reportedly deteriorated, leaving patients in dire straits.
An urgent investigation is being called for to address the growing concerns over the alleged “health mafia” and restore faith in the region’s healthcare system.
Efforts to contact hospital authorities and the accused staff members for comments remain unanswered as of this report. The situation continues to develop as public outcry grows, demanding accountability and immediate action from higher authorities to curb this malpractice.
