Hassan : An incident wherein patients  who had arrived at the Government Hospital in the town  for treatment  went on a  rampage and broke the glass panes of the Out patient unit  counter after hours of wait for the staff to arrive to issue them cards.The incident took place on November 17, Sunday evening.

It is learnt, the patients were waiting in a queue to avail the cards since over two hours. However, the counter staff  were not in sight  infuriating the patients as the hospital offered treatment only to those who had the cards giving details of the patient and their illness.

Meanwhile, police arrested  two persons for vandalism.  The hospital, it is learnt also faced shortage of medical staff and soon after the incident there was a debate among the existing staff as to who should lodge the complaint in the absence of a duty doctor.
