A 19-year-old male patient who was naked and acting inappropriately was observed by a nurse at the Indira Gandhi Hospital (IGH) in Dwarka, Delhi. The claim was made after a doctor at Kolkata's RG Kar Medical College and Hospital was raped and killed.

It is said that the IGH nurse screamed, warning others.

A resident doctor voiced concerns about the facility's safety standards on social media.

The doctor went on to X to draw attention to an alleged breach in safety procedures, underscoring the necessity of enhanced protocols to guarantee the welfare of both patients and staff.

The incident has sparked debate about the measures that should be taken to improve the safety and dignity of every person at a healthcare facility as well as doubts about the efficacy of the hospital's present security systems.

When contacted for comment, the hospital's medical director, Dr. BL Chaudhary, failed to pick up the phone. Rather than responding in person, he texted back, calling the information "factually incorrect".

The alleged assault happened in the medicine ward on August 12 around 4.30 am, according to an IGH resident doctor. The medical director was informed, but nothing was done about it.

The doctors' association uploaded a video of the incident to X, and it went viral very fast. It is said that the doctor who made the statement was questioned by IGH administrators about why he posted the information on social media.

The patient had been admitted to the ward with a fever that had lasted for 15 days, according to the doctors' accounts. He was receiving treatment at the time of the incident. When the patient's parents learned about the incident, they took him out of the hospital since doctors were upset with him.
