THE Maharaja Krushna Chandra Gajapati Medical College and Hospital (MKCGMCH) in Berhampur is reeling under a serious shortage of doctors and paramedic staff, despite being equipped with medical equipment and infrastructure.

- EXPRESS NEWS SERVICE @ Berhampur

The hospital has 43 departments and a sanctioned strength of 449 doctors, including professors. However, only 326 doctors are currently in position, out of which over 100 are either on contract or deputation.

While the official vacancy stands at 123, at least seven doctors who are still officially "in position" have not attended duty for an extended period.

Similarly, of the 951 sanctioned nursing officer posts, only 702 are currently filled.
