PGI doctor accused of death due to negligence
Chandigarh, August 16 In a complaint lodged with the PGI director, Singh said his son Rohan died due to the negligence of the doctor at Advanced Paediatric Centre, this morning. In his complaint to the director, vigilance office and head of the Department of Paediatric Medicine, Dr R K Marwaha, Singh said his son was admitted to PGI in May 2007 as he was suffering from the first stage of cancer. He had completed all four courses of chemotherapy successfully and was discharged on August 3. He was readmitted on August 7 as he developed black spots on his entire body, he added. Kartar Singh alleged that the next day, Dr Amita Trehan ordered for Rohan’s discharge without any proper medication even as black spots were still there on the body and mild bleeding still persisted. Then, he said, his son’s condition worsened and he was readmitted to PGI on August 9, but he never recovered after that. The PGI spokesperson said they had received the complaint and the matter would be looked into.

2 more city lads in national hockey camp
Chandigarh, August 16 Now, out of 23 probables, there are six trainees of the academy in the camp. The four other academy players namely Dharamvir Singh, Rupinder Pal Singh, Harmanpreet Singh and Deepak Kumar have already made it to the preparatory camp. Deepinder Pal plays at the right-full-back position while Preet Inder is an expert linkman. Overjoyed coach of the academy Jasbir Bajwa said the selection of his six trainees in the same national camp was a proud moment for him as well as the academy. “In fact, the recent top-class performance of both players in various top events catapulted them to the national-level camp. Expert drag flicker Deepinder Pal, who catches everybody’s attention with his outstanding speedy game, netted 12 goals out of total 16 in the school national games this year. Perhaps, he is the first full back, who not only saves the goals of rivals, but also contributes as drag flicker,” said Bajwa. Lauding Preet Inder Singh, who was declared the best player in the Nehru Hockey Tournaments in both u-15 and u-17 categories last year, Bajwa said he was capable of changing the scenario of the match with his accurate passes and his superb game sense. Last year, the Indian team, in which Dharamvir was a member, bagged silver medal in the same tournament held at Singapore. Both players have left the city today to join the camp. |
