Umarkote: Two specialist doctors joined their posts in the afternoon at the Umarkote Sub-Divisional Hospital. They are Dr. Ashwini Kumar Panda, a medicine specialist, and Dr. Devi Prasad Dash, a pediatrician.
These two positions had remained vacant for a long time in their respective departments. Their appointment has been made possible due to the efforts of local MLA and Minister of Mass Education, Tianananda Gond.
Residents expressed their satisfaction, saying that a long-standing public demand has finally been fulfilled. Upon hearing the news of the doctors’ joining, Muna Padhi, the councillor of Ward No. 11 of the Umarkote Municipality, visited them and extended a warm welcome.
The event took place on Saturday at the Umarkote Sub-Divisional Hospital in Nabarangpur District, with participation from the Bhamarokote Sub-Divisional Health Centre and the two doctors, alongside Councillor Muna Padhi.
