Srinagar: A disturbing discovery of expired medicines worth millions of rupees, dumped in a hospital washroom, has highlighted severe mismanagement within healthcare facilities in Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir.
According to Kashmir Media Service, the discarded medications, which included essential iron supplements and antibiotics, were found in the washroom of the New Type of Primary Health Center (NTPHC) in Bagtore village of Gurez. This incident underscores the ongoing issues of resource wastage and inadequate healthcare provision in the region.
Local residents have voiced their frustrations over the persistent shortage of medical supplies, especially iron supplements crucial for many women in the area. The improper disposal of these medicines not only represents a grave administrative failure but also exacerbates the healthcare challenges faced by residents, who are often forced to travel extensive distances for treatment.
This recent event at the Gurez hospital serves as a grim indicator of the negligence and oversight plaguing the healthcare system under the current administration in the occupied territory, reflecting a broader disregard for the well-being of its population.
