HEALTH and Family Welfare Minister Mukesh Mahaling and local BJP MLAs faced angry protestors when they were on their way to SLN Medical College and Hospital in Koraput on Thursday to assess the situation following the death of six patients within a span of hours on Tuesday night.
Mahaling held a review meeting with the five-member inquiry team and directed them to investigate all aspects of the deaths and submit a report within three days. He also sought detailed updates on the availability of medicines, healthcare services, and staff vacancies at the hospital.
Addressing the media, the minister said that preliminary findings indicated the six deaths were due to pre-existing conditions such as stab wounds, road accidents, cancer, and severe abdominal complications, and not due to any negligence in administering injections.
