PGI seeks security
Hospital authorities said orientation programmes to strengthen patient-doctor relations could be started again.
The Kanwalpreet incident, which happened on Monday, has "shaken our confidence," doctors said as PGI's spokesperson Manju Wadwalkar added, "Last year we organised such an orientation programme.
The institute may propose to start such classes again." Calling it a freak occurrence, she said, "Patients or their attendants do sometimes lose their patience and consequently have shouted at or slapped doctors. But such an incident has occurred for the first time."
Agreeing that the cop's rashness had disturbed congeniality between doctors and their patients, A K Gupta, deputy director administration, said: "The confidence has been shattered and we shall work on improving it."
Still coming to terms with Kanwalpreet's behaviour — who has a violent history — the faculty association met director KK Talwar, entreating for better security in future.
"The faculty association cannot act unless the complainant, Anju Gupta, supports us. But she has withdrawn the case and we cannot do anything about it. However, the director has assured us that he will speak to DGP Punjab about this," said Virendra Singh, a faculty member.
