Breaking: Late Night Brawl at Ludhiana's Civil Hospital
Hospital Riot at Civil Hospital in Ludhiana: Doctor and Ward Boys Engage in Altercation, Investigation Ensues
In the wee hours of Saturday, chaos erupted at the Civil Hospital in Ludhiana as a doctor, accompanied by two class four workers, reportedly attacked three ward boys located in the ICU section. The skirmish resulted in minor injuries for both groups, leaving officials in a state of concern.
According to an anonymous class four worker, the commotion began when the new ward boys were heading to refill their water bottles near the canteen. On their way, they ran into the doctor on duty in the emergency department, along with a class four worker and his friend, who allegedly instigated the attack. The ensuing brawl escalated, with the doctor and his companions reportedly calling the third ward boy downstairs and proceeding to thrash him as well.
Dr. Harpreet Singh, the Senior Medical Officer, swiftly recognized the need for action and promptly established a committee to investigate the matter. The panel, consisting of three members, has already gathered statements from those involved, with one worker yet to present himself before the committee. Their report, expected by Monday, aims to elucidate the whole incident's circumstances.
The involved doctor couldn't be reached for comment, while Dr. Harpreet confirmed that neither party sustained substantial injuries. Strict action will be taken, Dr. Harpreet assured, as soon as the committee provides the details of the incident.
Civil Surgeon Dr. Ramandeep Kaur weighed in on the situation, stating that a board has been constituted, and the investigation is almost complete. Only one of the persons involved is yet to provide his statement, and the probe should be finalized by Monday.
Preliminary findings suggest the altercation took place around 4 am near the canteen and hospital stairs. The reason behind the fight remains unclear; however, sources hint at a personal grudge harbored by one of the class four employees against one of the ward boys as a potential catalyst.
Stay tuned for more updates as the investigation unfolds. Swift and decisive action from the hospital authorities is anticipated, ensuring the safety and integrity of their staff.
