The family raised serious allegations against the hospital staff, alleging that death happened due to medical negligence on part of the authorities. They claimed that the patient died as a result of being administered an incorrect dose of medication through his glucose drip by a staff nurse.

His brother, Sonu, accused the hospital staff of neglecting his brother’s care despite his admission in the morning.

The family alleged that doctors were not available in the emergency ward and the patient was left at the mercy of staff nurses. According to the hospital authorities, Gaurav was brought to the facility around 11 am after being hit by a train on a railway line near Gurudwara Dukh Niwaran Sahib.

“To ascertain the cause of the death, a post-mortem will be conducted tomorrow after the family members submit their complaint at the civil surgeon’s office listing their allegations,” hospital’s nodal officer Dr Charankamal said.
