Who will care about those who care about everyone’s life: JJ Hospital Mumbai

Published

on

Resident doctors at Grant Medical College and Sir JJ Group of Hospitals, one of the most prestigious medical colleges in the city, live in fear as the hostels are on the verge of collapse. the 500 postgraduate medicos live in the hostel despite reports of broken beams and staircases and leaking ceilings. The latest structural audit report also stated that there was a need for structural repair work.
Tiles on the floor and on the side wall have crumbled down. Chunks of plaster from ceiling had fallen off in many places, including rooms and lobbies. The doctors even erected plastic sheds inside the rooms to escape the leakage.

A senior resident doctor on the condition of anonymity said, “We have no other option but to stay here. You can see that a part of the ceiling had collapsed. Fortunately, we were on duty at that time, so nobody was harmed.” “We live in misery. There is no floor, plasters are falling down. There are big cracks on pillars and iron rods, all rusted, are visible from the damaged wall. There is leakage issue too, which leads to fungal growth. Even the stairs are broken,” said another resident doctor.

A representative from Maharashtra State Association of Resident Doctors (MARD) said, “We have informed the administration about the bad condition of the building many times. But no decisions are being taken by the government. They have applied nets all around the building because the outside structure is falling. Is the government waiting for any mishap to take place?”

A senior official from JJ hospital said, “The hostel was built around three decades ago to accommodate 200 medical students. Now around 500 resident doctors live in this 7-storey building. The student strength has increased to 1,000, and half of them are living in another hostel. The number of resident doctors will soon increase to 1,500, so we need to build another building.” Attempts to contact Dean Dr Pallavi Saple went unanswered.

‘Structural repair needed’
A senior official from the Public Works Department (PWD) said, “There was a building collapse in the area after which the BMC ordered a structural audit of all buildings. We asked Veermata Jijabai Technological Institute (VJTI) to do so. The report, which was submitted to us recently, says that the building is not dangerous but needs structural repair work. As per my knowledge, no structural repair work has been conducted here in the three decades.”

“A proposal for repairs was sent earlier, but it got rejected. A new proposal for structural repairs at a cost of Rs 24.5 crore has been sent by the hospital administration to the Medical Education Department. Of this, Rs 12 crore will be for hostel repairs,” an official added.

PWD engineer Vijay Patil, who looks after JJ hospital works, said, “The building is safe as per the structural audit report, so doctors need not to worry. We have started the internal repair work. As far as the structural repair of the building is concerned, a proposal of Rs 12.50 crore has been sent. Once the resolution is passed, the work will start.” 500

Why is there a ceasefire at the behest of the US? asks SP leader and MLA Abu Asim Azmi

Published

on

Mumbai: Maharashtra Samajwadi Party leader and MLA Abu Asim Azmi said that America’s arrogance is unbearable. A ceasefire at the behest of America and a war at its behest are not right. He said that Pakistan had carried out terrorist and destructive acts in the country before, why did the Modi government not respond to it at that time? He said that after the Pahalgam terrorist attack, the country stood with the government like a lead wall, but a ceasefire was declared at the behest of America. He said that our country will decide whether to have relations with Pakistan or not. Who gave America the authority to do so? He said that they were brought to their knees at the behest of America.

Abu Asim Azmi said that when there were terrorist attacks earlier, where was America? Why didn’t it mediate? Once, it happened that Narendra Modi suddenly went on a visit to Pakistan for no reason. There is anger against Pakistan in the country and the people are adamant about continuing the war until the end of Pakistan. Narendra Modi says that negotiations and terrorism cannot go together, blood and water will not flow together, so why has no concrete step been taken against terrorism so far? Relations with Pakistan have been maintained repeatedly, now why was a ceasefire declared at the behest of America and the US President is also announcing it? Azmi said that if a war is fought across the border, then why was the war left incomplete?

Modi’s statement that blood and terrorism and water and blood will not flow together is just a dialogue. If there was to be a ceasefire, then there should have been mediation and intervention in this matter already. Why was it done now? He said that terrorism has not ended even after the abrogation of Article 370 and demonetization. Modi ji had said that if terrorism is not ended in 50 days, then the punishment given to me will be acceptable. Abu Asim Azmi said that India is the biggest power but America will teach us a lesson that when to go to war and when not, India will decide. He said that communalism is on the rise in the country and a burqa-clad woman was forced to chant the slogan of Jai Shri Ram and was mistreated. Muslims are being targeted. This is completely wrong. This kind of communalism should also end. The government also needs to put a stop to this.
