To reinforce accountability in healthcare services, Deputy Commissioner Rajouri Abhishek Sharma has placed the Block Medical Officer (BMO) Darhal under suspension following a surprise inspection at the Sub-Division Hospital, Darhal.
The inspection conducted to review the winter preparedness revealed that the entire hospital staff—except for one doctor and a technician—was absent from duty, raising concerns about the provision of healthcare services in the region, especially as winter approaches.
Taking immediate action, the Deputy Commissioner ordered the suspension of BMO Darhal, attaching him to the office of the Chief Medical Officer (CMO) Rajouri. Additionally, the CMO Rajouri has been assigned the additional charge of BMO Darhal until further orders to ensure uninterrupted healthcare services in the area.
