CM Omar stresses strengthening emergency services in J&K Hospitals

Jammu, Feb 14 (UNI) Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah on Friday emphasised the need to improve handling of emergency cases and capacity at various Government Medical Colleges (GMCs) to ease the burden on major hospitals.
He also stressed the importance of ensuring that doctors serve beyond urban centres.
"We need to augment and improve the emergency handling capability and capacity in new GMCs so that the pressure on GMC Jammu and GMC Srinagar is automatically reduced.
