Srinagar, July 23 (KNO): A resident doctor from Uttar Pradesh was allegedly assaulted by an attendant of a patient at SMHS hospital late last night, following which his colleagues held a protest, demandign action against the culprit.

According to details available with news agency—Kashmir News Observer (KNO), Dr Shahnawaz was allegedly assaulted by an attendant late last night in the hospital's emergency ward after the patient died.

A CCTV video of the assault has since gone viral on social media, sparking outrage across the medical community.

Dr Shahnawaz, who was allegedly assaulted, told KNO that he was at medical reception when a patient was brought there and after checking the patient, his vitals were not recorded and he was sent to triage room for further investigation but eventually the patient died.

He said that after the death of the patient, one of the patient's attendants came and kicked him. "We are here for the welfare and treatment of patients not to get assaulted," he said, demanding a high-level probe into the matter.

The assault triggered a massive protest by resident doctors, interns and other staff of the Government Medical College (GMC) Srinagar and its associated hospitals. They assembled inside the hospital premises, raising slogans and demanding immediate action against the perpetrator.

Meanwhile, the college administration said legal action has been initiated and an FIR (No. 11/2025) has been registered at the concerned police station.

Link Road Construction in Yaripora’s Kokergund Sparks Controversy

Contractor Using Wet Soil Instead of Stone Dust, Locals Raise Quality Concerns

Youth Association kokergund Alleges Material Fraud in Link Road Construction

Muneeb Nazeer

Kulgam, July 22 (JKNS): Fresh concerns have emerged from Kokergund village in Yaripora, Kulgam, where locals have alleged that the newly constructed link road is being built using wet soil instead of standard stone dust or dry base material a deviation they say could severely compromise the road’s durability.

Youth association Kokergund told the News Agency _JKNS, That contractor, despite having an approved estimate of ₹9 lakh, has compromised on the material quality. As per locals, the contractor used only 9 dumber (truckloads) of stones and 2 dumber of wet soil, skipping the mandatory use of fine dust which is essential for a stable and long-lasting road base.

"They are playing with public money and risking our safety. This road will collapse in no time," said a visibly agitated resident, accusing the contractor of cost-cutting at the expense of quality.

The muddy base, locals say, increases the risk of early wear and tear, especially with the upcoming rainy season approaching.

Experts caution that the use of wet soil can lead to uneven surfaces, erosion, and waterlogging, significantly reducing the road’s life span.

Locals have urged the district administration to intervene immediately, demanding a technical inspection and a halt to ongoing work until proper construction materials are used. (JKNS)
