Again in a shocking incident, a patient had to be carried all the way to the District Hospital (GMC) Doda on shoulders in Gai village of Dessa in Doda district in Jammu and Kashmir due to lack of road connectivity, Non availability of Doctor, health facilities in Dessa area. In a video which went viral the locals can be seen ferrying a patient on their shoulders for 45 kilometres to reach the Doda Hospital.
The aged patient from Malan Panchayat of Dessa area was suffering from pain due to heart attack and patient paralized. This highlights the lack of basic facilities even in an emergency situation in the native area of second time PM Dr Jitendra Singh.
These incidents illustrate how both centre and state government have failed to provide basic facilities to the people in remote parts of the Chenab Valley. People who face medical emergencies have no other option than carrying the patient on their shoulders or in palanquins.
People of the Dessa areas has been neglected by the successive state government as every political leaders used poor public of Doda District as vote bank and no developmental work has been done since Independence. People alleged that Dr Jitendra Singh tenure has completely failed in Chenab valley, we have voted second time and send him to Delhi but he also failed to fill the hopes of public even the native villages of Dr Jitendra has no basic facilities.
