Local outrage over makeshift fracture care in Bihar government hospital

The sight of a cloth bandage replacing a plaster cast has ignited anger among villagers near the Mohaniya hospital. Witnesses say the improvised method was the only immediate option to keep the fractured leg from moving, raising concerns about patient safety during transport. Critics argue that a government facility located on a busy highway should be equipped with essential orthopedic tools. The episode has been described by locals as a failure of the healthcare system to provide even the most basic emergency equipment.
