Patient shot in hospital ward

While one bullet passed through Yadavs neck,doctors removed the other one which was lodged in his neck. The bullet lodged in his shoulder after the first attack in Tikaitganj area of Barabanki is yet to be taken out.

While the incident spread panic among the patients and their attendants,it also highlighted the chinks in the security system of the hospital. The security here is no good. Last night,there was one security guard and he could not stop them. They could have shot anyone, said a patient.

Chief Medical Superintendent Dr N S Shankhwar said we had deployed an unarmed security guard in the ward. Now we have placed two gunmen there. Senior police officers have assured us of extra vigilance on the campus during the night.
