Jalandhar Hospital Deaths Prompt Doctor Dismissal, Suspensions

At a hospital in Jalandhar, three patients died because of a problem with the oxygen supply.

The government is taking action: one doctor has been fired, and three others have been suspended.

The Health Minister said the hospital had enough backup systems, but the staff didn't use them correctly.

A politician from the Congress party thinks the government is just trying to look good and wants more people to be held responsible.

The government is now making sure all hospitals have reliable oxygen and power supplies.
