AGARTALA, Dec 31 (TIWN): Tripura's biggest Govt hospital GB hospital witnessed a cruel scenario on Wednesday after a brain stroke patient who was brought from Kolkata's RN hospital was not given basic treatment there. The helpless family waited for hours before the GB hospital and the patient was kept inside the ambulance amid oxygen stock was going to finish there. Due to bed-shortage, the patient could not be attended and the hospital denied his admission, said the patient party while addressing media who came to the hospital before 3 hours and only 40 minutes of oxygen stock had remained. Legal experts believe that this incident is a deprivation to the fundamental rights that is "Right to Health". Supreme Court in a verdict on 18th December has said also that Govt must monitor the private hospital's billing matters and also should ensure quality health services in hospitals. The issue was raised after a poor family on Wednesday was brought their patient Biswajit Debnath back from Kolkata but GB hospital Doctors did not even attend the patient.

He was forced to take to ILS hospital, amid the family has no money. This has generated massive resentment among the patient party led a tensed-situation in the GB hospital premise.

Talking to media, the patient's friends say, "We came at 2 pm here and from then we are trying to convince the Doctor to attend him. His parents are almost begging for their son's treatment but this inhuman Doctors did not even bothered to check the matter. Government is paying them salaries without any reason. They do not deserve salaries at all. Without attending patients, they are just counting their salaries".
