In response to the allegations, the Medical Superintendent of District Hospital Kulgam stated, “We will constitute a committee to investigate the matter thoroughly. If any lapses are found, strict action will be taken to ensure justice for the family.”
The incident has raised fresh concerns over healthcare practices in government hospitals, with locals urging authorities to improve medical infrastructure and accountability.
