Patna: Bihar Deputy Chief Minister and Health Minister Tejashwi Yadav conducted surprise checks of three hospitals, including Bihar`s largest hospital Patna Medical College and Hospital (PMCH) at midnight on Tuesday. Tejashwi was angry after seeing dogs inside the wards of PMCH. He also found that doctors and medical staff were unavailable at that time in the PMCH. Wearing a facial mask and a cap to hide his identity, Tejashwi reached the hospital without any office employees or supporters. He visited the OPD, general ward and the ICU of the hospital.
