This treatment has proven to be a game-changer, resulting in significant recovery among the patients.

No fresh case has been reported from the affected village in the past three days, suggesting that the situation may finally be under control.

Principal, GMC Rajouri, Dr Amarjeet Singh Bhatia told this newspaper that all the 11 patients admitted in the hospital are recovering. "The condition of three patients admitted in two Jammu hospitals and another patient admitted in PGI Chandigarh is also stable".

He said they are being given continuous infusion of atropine, which is used to increase heart rate and antidote for organophosphorus poison, to treat the patients.
