Sylhet Bureau :

Deputy Commissioner of Sylhet Md. Sarwar Alam said that a self-contained cancer hospital will be built in Sylhet in the shortest possible time, so that cancer patients in Sylhet do not have to go to Dhaka or abroad. Its activities will start within the next 3 months, he said.

He said these things while talking to reporters after inspecting the structural development of the cancer unit to be built at Sylhet MAG Osmani Medical College on Thursday afternoon.

Secretary of the Ministry of Housing and Public Works Nazrul Islam and the hospital authorities were present at the time.

At the time, the Deputy Commissioner said that the doctor crisis in Osmani will be over by October-November. In addition, the activities of the Sylhet District Hospital will be started within a couple of months after overcoming the complications. The Sylhet DC expressed hope that if it is started, the patient pressure in Osmani will be reduced.

The Deputy Commissioner said that work is underway to make Osmani Hospital free from brokers. He said that the doctors and nurses here are very sincere. But the service is being disrupted due to excess patients. There is a manpower of 500 beds here. But there are about 3 thousand patients. Besides, the relatives of the patients also crowd in. Because of this, everything is getting complicated.
