Reliable sources told early times that the much hyped initiative of PM 'Swachh bahrat abhiyan' found no takers in the Government hospital if one take stock of the different wards of the hospital once can conclude that wards marred by trashes, dirt, poor sanitation etc which mocks at the claims of the Government of proper sanitation in the hospitals. Incumbent Minister after taking over the reins of this department took initiative by launching swachh abhiyan accompanied with other officers of the administration to make this initiative carry forward but it's sad due to indifferent attitude of administration situation again back to square one. " Due to Mosquitoes in the different wards patients are up in arms against administration . They fear outbreak of malaria and other diseases. "As it is common saying that for ailing person's environment should be clean but in this hospital which is thronged by patients from different districts administration utterly fails to maintain hygienic condition which is taking toll on the precious lives of the gullible patients" sources rsaid.
