Our Health Systems

 

          Our Cook Anjali whose daughter is ten years old, has struggled for two days with her daughter's stomach pain. On seeing her condition she rushed her to the nearest Government Hospital Bara Hindu Rao Hospital. The doctors on duty gave her injections one after another to reduce the pains but the pain didn't subside. 

          When, I inquired about her condition, she told me that she got her daughter discharged from the hospital as her daughter was waning in pain continuously.  Later on she told me that the doctor on duty told her that since her daughter is fine, than what more she want now from the doctors. Anjali simply asked the doctor that why her daughter is in pain, why after giving so many injections, the pain still persists.  How can the doctor says that her daughter is fine. When Anjali told me about the condition of her daughter, I got little hint whether she is suffering form Appendicitis, but I kept my thought with myself.  And when she narrated the whole incident, I got infuriated at the behaviour of the doctors who are considered not less than God by the patient and patient's relatives. Anjali got her daughter discharged from the hospital, against the wishes of her parents.

          After, Anjali got her discharged, she took her daughter to the local clinic where the doctor after checking her clinically, told her that this is the case of appendicitis and she was advised for ultrasound test. After the confirmation and on the advise of the local doctor who is also running a private hospital, gave her an estimate of Rs.1.25 lakhs for the operation which was not possible for her.  Anjali, then took her to the Kalawati Hospital.  At the Kalawati Hospital, again after few tests, she was referred to Lady Hardinge Hospital, Connaught Place.  Again it was a painful ordeal for the patient as well as the parents as there was a long queue of patients and this poor girl was admitted to the hospital after a long wait of four to five hours. There she was operated and her infected Appendix was removed.  This whole process from stomachache to visit to Hindu Rao Hospital and then her operation in Lady Hardinge Hospital took four days and this poor girl spent these days in pain. 

          But her ordeal of pain did not end even after the operation. Her stitches were removed few days after the operation.  When at home, she was having continuous pain and a fluid started flowing from the wound, three days after the removal of stitches. She was then taken to the local doctor who again suggested Anjali to take her daughter to Lady Hardinge but remembering the long queues and wait, she refused to go the Lady Hardinge Hospital and requested the local doctor to treat her daughter. It was severe infection inside her stomach.  

          Finally, after spending few thousands of rupees and numerous rounds at the clinics of doctors, post operation, her daughter is fine now.  But this whole ordeal leaves many questions unanswered, that why:

    i.     the docs in Hindu Rao Hospital didn't conducted tests on her 

    ii.    the docs at Hindu Rao Hospital are so insensitive to the patients

    iii.   the Government Hospitals are overcrowded and burdened beyond their capacity

    iv.   the number of doctors is increasing every year then why these hospitals do not have               enough doctors

    v.   Private Hospitals by the so called corporates are mushrooming whereas Government              hospitals are lacking in facilities 

   vi.  the funds meant for government hospitals are not being utilised on the infra-structure             of these  hospitals who is using these funds

  vii. the people suffer when our Governments announcing schemes every year

        Am I overthinking?????????

Sushant Singh Rajput - A frustrated Genius


Sushant Singh Rajput was found died on 14th June, 2020 in his house. They say it was suicide and some say it was murder and for so many months our hysterical media had become Sherlock Holms to bring out the truth and were busy day in and out to prove that his death was a part of a larger conspiracy.  Anyway, whatever it is, let them decide. The fact is that he is not alive. 

I was not his fan when he was alive, watched few of his movies. The last of his movies before his death was Chhichhore  which I liked the most and watched this movie for three times.  I watched this movie not because of Sushant Singh Rajput but for every Chhichhora who worked in this movie. The movie has a very strong message for all i.e. for students and more specially for today's parents who are so much pressurized with the ranks of their kids and then the pressure penetrates into the minds of their kids. A very good movie with comic sense which is brilliantly handled by others.

But was utterly surprised that a movie with such a strong message and brilliant acting was not included in the list of multi crore movie. Neither, it was discussed by media nor by masses.  Had it been the movie of one of the big shots of Bollywood, there could have been a euphoria about the movie.  

After, his death I opened his page on Instagram and was astonished at the content of the material that he shared on his page. Here I am sharing few of his posts that left me dumbstruck.

Is he talking about himself in the above post.  Normally whatever we write in such posts is about us only, I mean whatever we think, imagine and assume about others.  

Being in filmdom he is writing about coding and computer games.  Ideas keep pouring in and out, irrespective of the field, one is in.  But here it shows signs of this tastes and of course level of intelligence.




True, not a single person can be taught to feel. Beautiful words.

Strangely, the last line he wrote to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight and never stop fighting. Whereas, he himself had stopped fighting and chose to end his life.

Contradictions in thought process and action.


Gazing the sky and searching for the planets, is my favourite subject.  I also search for planets and then try to find their names.
  Here, he is very confidently and specifically telling the names of the planets, great.


A very good painting that he chose for his page. Are the pictures in the painting symbolic to what is written below the picture  The key to dreams, which everybody has in his possession but very few dare to open the lock or the door.  



"In the fight between you and the world, back the world", Did he back the world by committing suicide because as they say he was a victim of nepotism so couldn't handle and chose to exit??


Parallels between eastern religion  and western science????

Anyway beautiful Natraj statue.


"They seem distant and far  but we are really close to them.  How beautiful is that."

Yes very Beautiful and and true.



Never watched his movie on Dhoni as I feel that Biopics in India, normally becomes very melodramatic but yes watched Biopic on Manjhi of Nawazuddin. The dedication of SSR for the character he played in the biopic, can be seen in his practice and moreover, in the words that he has written in this post.👆


Had he been truly living his dream, may not be true.

He was a good rank holder in JEE Exam and chose DTU for graduation but didn't complete his course. Why was he in a hurry all the time.  Anyhow, what a loss to Science.


Very true.  Lion does not require any rituals.  
He is a born king which is known to all, in his surroundings and respected by all around.




He was following all the news on Chandrayan like an enthusiast or like a good student. He has left science is basically, a loss to the field that he has dropped for films. 
Joined films only to exit the world






The life that he was living.



It is good see such concerns from Bollywood fraternity. 





Watched this movie thrice and enjoyed thoroughly.  A very major issue was pointed out in this movie.  Parents only expect good rank \ marks from their kids but never prepare them for the failures actually parents themselves are not prepared for failure thus burdening their kids with their own dreams and ego rather guide and encouraging the kids to pursue their dreams. 


Picture was not listed among the 100 crore camp though it earned. Ironically, these days movies are ranked according to the earning not according to the material in it which probably also put pressure on the actors in the similar way as shown in the movie!!
 (Who knows)



How true




.......and he lost faith in himself






We are lost in so called big battles caused by worries that we forget to live the small moments of happiness which can actually fill are life with happiness which gives the courage to fight the big battles caused by worries and most of the worries are imaginary.







wah Gahlib




He never believed what he preaches as it is easy to preach but difficult to practice. 






























Very true


Why hasn't he acknowledged the convergence that's "happeniall around the glob. If you can't make yourself happy then how can you think about others happiness. 
 
I saw his video where he is signing some documents with the officials of NITI Ayog. 
The official present in the video was my previous boss. 



But one has to be kind to oneself 














These lines speaks a lot about his thinking. Was he talking about the negotiations of his mother between him and his father. 
 As there were rumours about the temperament of his father












Even today I wonder that what was he doing in Bollywood. Probably one can live his or her dreams on the silver screen through various avtars

We have witnessed the dirtiest politics after his departure from this planet. Our hysterical media with the help of his relative played the dirtiest game only to amuse few politicians and it is going on with new accusations on more people. Can anybody stop this media trial. How his parents and siblings have allowed to play dirty politics on his death

I wonder that his father could not see his talent and frustration when his son was alive but he found conspiracy in the mortal remains of his son. It sounds strange.
 When a child lives in frustration and dies like this, then it is a failure of parents, probably his father is aware of this fact.  Who knows?????

Having too much intelligence is always fatal.

 His death is a loss to everyone.
