A viral video from India’s Himachal Pradesh has sparked widespread outrage after showing a doctor allegedly assaulting a patient at Shimla’s Indira Gandhi Medical College and Hospital (IGMC). The incident reportedly occurred during a dispute over medical treatment when the patient, Arjun Panwar, who was suffering from breathing difficulties, was physically attacked by the attending physician.
According to reports, Panwar had undergone a bronchoscopy and sought oxygen support when the doctor questioned his right to occupy a hospital bed. The confrontation escalated, leading to the alleged assault, which was captured on video and circulated widely on social media. The footage, showing the doctor repeatedly striking the patient, has prompted strong criticism of hospital authorities and renewed debate over patient safety and medical ethics.
Hospital officials have announced an internal investigation, though no formal disciplinary action has been confirmed. The incident has intensified calls for stricter enforcement of professional conduct standards and better oversight of public healthcare institutions in India.
