Bargarh Critical Care Block rots in neglect
Orissa POST
|September 28, 2025
Nearly a year has passed since the inauguration of the ₹8.10-cr critical care facility, the first of its kind in state, on Bargarh DHH premises but not a single patient has received treatment there
Healthcare services in Bargarh district are in a state of collapse with large-scale vacancies in several posts of doctors and other staffers across hospitals.
The district headquarters hospital (DHH) portrays a gloomy picture as fracture patients are being treated with cardboard splints, while family planning surgeries are halted midway as crucial equipment become defunct.
