Summary:
With no family or friend to look after him or chase doctors, no one took note of him as he lay unconscious in a hospital bed. Hospital chief S K Gupta said: "The patient had developed bed sores, which caused a few ants to climb into his bed. TOI's calls and texts to chief medical and health officer S S Paikra went unanswered. When reporters asked doctors about the ants, they said that the patient was given food the previous night, which he didn't eat. The victim was taken into the health centre, and referred to Baikunthpur at the district hospital..
