Death of young boy in absence of Ambulance and medical staff at Aboora eye opener for authorities.
Tragic Death of Orphan Boy in Gonipora: JKCSF Demands Probe into Alleged Medical Negligence and Immediate Action Against BMO Kunzer

SRINAGAR, JULY ,04 :

The Jammu & Kashmir Civil Society Forum (JKCSF) expresses deep sorrow and outrage over the tragic and avoidable death of young Zeshan Rashid, son of late Abdul Rashid, a resident of Gonipora Kunzer. Zeshan, reportedly the sole bread-earner of his orphaned family, lost his life due to the unavailability of medical aid and ambulance services in a time of dire need.

According to distressing reports from local residents, the Primary Health Centre (PHC) Aboora was without any medical staff when the emergency occurred.Worse still, the ambulance driver was absent, resulting in a fatal delay.This is being widely seen as a heinous act of official negligence.

JKCSF strongly holds the Block Medical Officer (BMO) Kunzer accountable for this lapse. It has been reported that instead of ensuring medical staff presence at PHC Aboora, the BMO has allegedly been misusing the services of PHC Kunzer staff for personal administrative assignments. Such dereliction of duty in a healthcare setup directly endangers lives and cannot be tolerated.

Taking serious note of the incident, JKCSF Chairman Kh Abdul Qayoom Wani has demanded an immediate and impartial probe into the matter and called for the suspension of the concerned BMO pending investigation. He stated, “Ambulances are not meant for staff convenience—they are a lifeline for people, especially in remote accident-prone areas where every minute is critical.”

Civil society forum kunzer and Tangmarg sub division has already shown concern on Lack of infrastructure, medical staff in Tangmarg, kunzer ,Aboora and other health institutions.
CMO Baramulla should be made answerable for this negligence.
Wani urged the Health minister Sakina itoo and Secretary health Abid Rashid are to take serious note of the negligence
The JKCSF also urges the Health Department to take urgent corrective measures, including ensuring the round-the-clock presence of medical personnel and functional ambulance services in far-flung areas like Aboora. Accountability and systemic correction are essential to restore public faith and prevent such tragedies in the future.
