Many media houses were bought with money power to make the report negative in a few minutes.

In Punjab’s Civil Hospital, the role of doctors is seen to be very active in providing basic facilities to patients and giving them good treatment. Especially, the doctors of Punjab’s Civil Hospital, Amritsar are playing a good role in maintaining this example. But, the question now arises that they are being forced to become a part of a conspiracy because of some people. In one such case, the conspiracy of some other group played an important role in trapping and defaming him badly. After duty, a doctor’s birthday was celebrated in the hospital. All the doctors and staff participated in it. But, in a few minutes, the media bought with money power spoiled the happiness of the doctor. Here a big question arises that is a government doctor not allowed to celebrate his birthday, can he not even use his rights. Did he commit such a big crime that the media took out a procession for him.
Perhaps we should pay attention to one thing that these doctors are considered to be the second form of God. If a patient is in trouble, they leave everything and start treating him. Not only this, many times these people leave no stone unturned in giving a new life to a dying patient. Media has become a spectacle at this time. Now they have lost the ability to understand the difference between right and wrong, they are only concerned about TRP, for this, no matter to what extent they need to go, they do not back down. After this episode, doctors are afraid to even look into anyone’s eyes. They are regretting in their hearts why they did this. What big crime did they commit by doing this. It is worth thinking that at present, in every department, the birthday of every employee and officer is celebrated in free time. But I don’t know why the birthday of a doctor in the civil hospital was made such a big issue. After all, what was his fault in this, which the media exaggerated. Anyway, the media should have thought once before running this news, because, one mistake of theirs can ruin the life of the doctors.
If we talk about the government figures, then there is already a huge shortage of doctors and other staff in government hospitals. If we look at the reason behind this, then it has come to the fore that doctors are harassed unnecessarily, so they are afraid of working in government hospitals. They consider working in the private sector a better option. The media completes the remaining task, deliberately defames government doctors. This is the main reason why doctors are losing interest in working in government hospitals. If there is no change in the situation, then a day will come when the government will be forced to employ doctors from other states in its hospital.
From medicine to treatment, everything is free
The doctors who are being defamed by the current media should know that these doctors provide free treatment and medicine to everyone. Even if the government is investing money in it, somewhere the cost of a doctor’s life is also important. Many times they have to ignore their family and society and concentrate on treating a patient, then no media house makes headlines about their work. One mistake of theirs is shown as if they have committed a serious crime. One thing is worth noticing that the same media does not publish any news of private hospitals, although the biggest irregularities are happening in private sector hospitals. The way patients are treated there, even a butcher would not do this. You know, the media gets advertisements from there, so the tongue is suppressed before raising a voice against them.
There is no mention of attacks on doctors
In the past, there were so many attacks on government doctors that they had to run away to save their lives. The media did not even publish these incidents. One thing came to light in it, during that time the doctors did not get support even from their own top officials. The police administration first gave up. But, some action was taken after the doctors warned them. In such a situation, we all have to understand that how a doctor puts his life at risk to save the patient, but still some people attack the doctors without any reason. This should not happen at all. Like a responsible Indian citizen, everyone should perform their duty.
Media gets priority
It is worth noting here that in the Civil Hospital, journalists associated with the media are given priority in every matter by the doctors and the administration. If they need any kind of treatment, then the doctors here provide them every facility on priority basis. They do not have to wait in such long lines. They are treated first. Not only this, if the doctor has samples of medicines of any company, he also distributes them. Despite doing so much, there is no justification for the media to defame the doctors. This proves one thing clearly that at present money is everything for the media and whatever is given to it is published or broadcast in the same way. This should not happen at all.
