Following heavy rain in most parts of Bihar in the aftermath of Cyclone Yaas, the Sadar Hospital in Katihar witnessed waterlogging, and all the wards, including OPD, were submerged.
Doctors and other hospital staff, patients and attendants are facing problems due to the waterlogging in the premises of the hospital.
However, the hospital staff continues to look after the patients.
Some could even be seen using their motorbikes to reach the patients through the waterlogged corridors.
Anupama, the Sister in-charge at the hospital toldthat they continue to work despite the adverse conditions to look after the patients.
"We are working, even when the hospital is submerged in the water. We have to serve patients in this condition too," Anupama said.
