Additional Beds and Oxygen Supplies Ordered for Jharkhand Medical Colleges

The minister ordered that all medical college hospitals, including the Regional Institute of Medical Sciences in Ranchi, reserve ten extra beds for swine‑flu patients. He also mandated sufficient oxygen cylinders, essential medicines, diagnostic kits, ICU/HDU readiness, and a trained medical‑paramedical workforce. Hospital administrators have been told that no shortage of resources should impede treatment of any suspected case. The directive aims to create a robust safety net across the state's key health facilities.
