Private businesses run amok in Govt Hospitals

Private commercial activities are flourishing unchecked in several government hospitals, raising concerns among patients and their families.

Canteens, parking lots, and medical stores within hospital premises are largely under private control.While some operate with formal permissions, many others function without authorization, with administrators setting their own fees. Patients questioning these practices are reportedly threatened with eviction, and in some cases, private security has been deployed to enforce these rules. Longstanding hospital staff have raised concerns about corruption and vested interests behind this unauthorized control. Despite these issues, government officials appear largely indifferent, leaving patients and helpers frustrated.
