AGARTALA, April 15 (TIWN): Despite of several tall claim of improving the health service in the State, patients suffers from several problems gripping the GB Pant Hospital in Agartala.

Though the state government has taken initiatives to deliver a quality treatment across the state, but the improvement of the health services in the government run hospitals remained dismal till date.

According to the patients admitted at GB Pant Hospital, the state government who always stands tall with the so called development failed to provide quality health services in the hospital.

The patients have been suffering from proper drinking water facilities resulting them to go outside and buy water bottles. The patients admitted at the hospital have also been suffering from a filthy environment inside the hospital.

The junior doctors and the staffs are impolite, arrogant and indolent and they handle the patients with an off putting approach, alleged the patients. 

The patients in other government run hospitals like Agartala IGM Hospital and others at the rural Tripura are not far away from such problems, where several irregularities are often found leading the patients to suffer at large.

The scenario at emergency ward speaks volumes about the gravity of the situation. Due to paucity of adequate space, patients on stretchers can be seen lined up on both sides of the corridors.

However, bad odour is almost identical with government hospitals. Waste materials strewn all around, crowded wards and waiting rooms are a grim reminder of the unhygienic condition of our health institutions.

The situation, however, has not improved at the emergency ward during the last few years as far as arrangements are concerned. Stinking ward and untidy beds have become a common sight.
