Digboi CHC Patients Suffer as Night Services Halt Amid NHM Strike

Patients at Digboi Community Health Centre are struggling as no doctors or staff have been available at night since NHM employees began a statewide strike. Only three government doctors are handling daytime services, forcing emergency patients to leave untreated after 8 p.m. Local leaders warn the situation could be fatal and urge the government to deploy more permanent doctors. The protest, ongoing since October 29, has severely disrupted healthcare across several districts.
