HEALTHCARE ALERT: Sasaram Hospital Plunged Into Darkness, Doctors Forced to Treat Patients Using Phone Torches

A major healthcare lapse was reported at Sasaram’s Sadar Hospital in Bihar’s Rohtas district, where a power outage in the emergency ward forced doctors to treat patients using mobile phone flashlights. The sudden blackout caused panic and created difficulties for patients and their families, particularly those requiring urgent medical attention. The incident is especially concerning because the hospital reportedly has a dedicated transformer and a large generator as backup power arrangements. Despite these facilities, the emergency department was left without electricity, raising serious questions about hospital management and preparedness. When questioned about the incident, hospital authorities reportedly failed to provide a clear explanation, saying that efforts were being made to restore the electricity. The episode has sparked concerns over patient safety, infrastructure, and negligence in Bihar’s healthcare system.
