“Ironically there are two gynecologists posted at SDH Akhnoor, sources said and questioned their working saying that instead of giving the pregnant lady due medical treatment, they allegedly referred the lady to already overburdened hospital Jammu.

Sources also alleged that the two lady doctors are not handling the affairs at said hospital instead has made it (SDH Akhnoor) only a referral hospital from where most of the woman patients of any kind to Jammu hospitals. Meantime all attempts to contact the Block Medical Officer (BMO)
