AGARTALA, December 7 (TIWN): For at least 4 hours during the morning hours today GB Pant Hospital was in a state of near-emergency, with a power crisis.

Agartala GB Hospital today suffered a power disruption for at least four hours, with the patients and their families facing acute discomfort. From morning 7:00 AM to 11:00 AM there was no electricity at the Agartala GB pant hospital. And for at least 4 hours the patients and their families were in a state of near-emergency situation. During the power crisis today the major departments of the hospital, like OT, Blood Bank, Gynecologist department, surgical ward, etc remained paralysed.

However, such a worst condition exists that the a serious question arises about the paralysed administration and Health Minister. 

It is also to be mentioned here that not only the electricity but also the Agartala GB Pant hospital had always been in a bad shape, as it lacks proper drinking water facilities, leading the patients and their families to buy water from outside. Beside, the infrastructure inside the hospital remained in such a worst condition as the walls at some parts of the hospital collapsed.

It is also mentionable that recently the AGMC multi crore research project scam had already came under the limelight.
