A patient at Kochi's Government Maharaja's Taluk Hospital was attacked by stray dogs, sustaining injuries to his back and head. The incident highlights safety lapses, including the absence of a compound wall, which has allowed stray dogs to frequent the hospital premises. Local councillor Kavitha Harikumar is advocating for immediate steps to build a wall and relocate the dogs, citing the hospital's responsibility and the need for accessible healthcare for the poor. The hospital authorities declined to comment.
