Hooda claimed the court pointed to a severe shortage of doctors and a lack of basic amenities in district hospitals. He said hundreds of posts for medical officers and specialist doctors have remained vacant for years, and the government has shown no interest in filling them. The court was reportedly compelled to mandate that every district hospital must have at least one CT scan machine, one MRI machine, and an ICU facility. ## Coverage - millenniumpost.in Tags: Bhupinder Singh Hooda, BJP government, doctor shortage, Haryana, healthcare, High court Canonical: https://indianopinion.org/hc-flags-doctor-shortage-basic-amenity-gaps-in-haryana-hooda/ License: Summary and commentary (c) Indian Opinion, reusable with attribution.
