GND HOSPITAL Amritsar, February 22 Though the department of radio diagnosis at Guru Nanak Dev Hospital is equipped with quality infrastructure, it lacks in adequate security arrangements. It does not have any security guards available to guard the machines worth to the tune of Rs 9 crore. At night, the department remains open for the emergency cases as Radiologists work around the clock to ensure medical services are available at all times. The officials at the department said that they earlier had night guards but recently they were removed and deputed at some other place. The insiders said that the guards were removed on orders of the Principal’s office. Dr Ramesh Chander, head of department, said, “We have written to the Principal’s office for deployment of security guards.” He said that they always fear that some miscreant might damage the costly machinery which would create unnecessary trouble for the staff .”
