A students’ organisation in Arunachal Pradesh has formally lodged a complaint against a medical officer for failing to report for duty at the Primary Health Centre (PHC) in Tato, Shi Yomi district. The prolonged absence, spanning over two months, has severely disrupted essential healthcare services for local residents in this remote area.
Complaint Highlights Healthcare Disruption
The All Boh Ramo Bokar Students Union (BRBSU) raised the issue against Dr. Bomchi Koyu, alleging that despite receiving official posting orders, the doctor has not joined duty at PHC Tato. The union described the situation as serious negligence that has badly affected the functioning of the health facility.
Residents who depend on the PHC for basic medical care have faced major inconvenience due to the staff shortage. The students’ body has urged concerned authorities to take prompt action to restore normal healthcare delivery and rebuild public confidence in the system.
Call for Immediate Intervention
In their complaint, union leaders emphasised that the absence has directly impacted the delivery of critical health services in the region. They have appealed to higher officials in the Health Department to address the matter swiftly and ensure that medical officers fulfil their assigned responsibilities.
PHC Tato serves as a vital lifeline for communities in Shi Yomi district, making the uninterrupted presence of qualified doctors essential for addressing routine and emergency health needs.
Broader Concerns Over Medical Staffing in Remote Areas
This incident draws attention to recurring challenges in maintaining consistent medical staffing at government health centres located in far-flung and difficult-to-access parts of Arunachal Pradesh. Reliable healthcare infrastructure remains a key priority for improving quality of life in such regions.
Local stakeholders hope that swift administrative measures will prevent further lapses and strengthen accountability within the public health system.
