The Story in Brief
A ground inspection by India Today found Dhakre Multispecialty Hospital in Gwalior locked and apparently non-functional, despite being listed as a 100-bed teaching hospital for Maharana Pratap College of Nursing. The premises appeared deserted with no patients or staff, raising doubts about clinical training for nursing students.
Hospital operator Shivendra Singh Dhakre said the facility operated during Covid but later shut, claiming repairs and a recent CMHO inspection caused the closure. The controversy comes as Gwalior division inspects 38 of 50 nursing colleges seeking recognition, following High Court-flagged irregularities that halted approvals in Madhya Pradesh.
The Indian Opinion
Claims of a functioning hospital with 100 beds and an ICU ring hollow when the gate is locked and wards are empty. The narrative that a two-day closure explains neglect does not match the rusted lock and construction debris. Both sides spin, but the district administration's three-day inspection report will show whether students are being cheated of practical training or allegations are overblown.
