Mumbai's Cooper Hospital: Patient queues after staff contracts expire

Mumbai's Cooper Hospital: Patient queues after staff contracts expire

Imagine a hospital where people go to see doctors.

Some helpers who register patients didn't come to work because their jobs weren't renewed on time.

This caused big lines at the hospital.

Patients had to wait a long time, and some even had to go home without seeing a doctor.

The hospital usually has many people to help, but now there were only a few, making things slow.

The people who work in the hospital want the hospital to hire them permanently, instead of having temporary jobs.

They are talking about it, but the problem happened because the paperwork for their jobs wasn't done on time.
