While the services at the emergency block were not disrupted due to the 24-power back-up facility, there was no supply in the patients’ wards and the private rooms. With no electricity at the biochemistry departments, several laboratory tests had to be postponed. The scheduled surgeries were not affected.
This is not the first time in the recent months when long hours of disrupted power supply has affected the PGI. A few weeks ago, a family had alleged that their patient died because some of the medical apparatus did not work in the room due to a three-hour powercut late in the night. One hour power supply also hit the Government Multi-Specialty Hospital-16.
