Guwahati:
Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma has said that the state will start an 'odd-hour management' process in government medical colleges and other hospitals as India fights a deadly second wave of Covid.
Mr Sarma, who earlier this week took oath as Assam's Chief Minister, visited the Guwahati Medical College Hospital at around 2:30 AM on Sunday and took stock of the Covid situation.
In a tweet, he wrote: "Managing critical patients at odd hours is always a challenge. At 2.30 am, I visited GMCH to see how #Covid patients are being given treatment in Emergency Ward at night. I was satisfied with the arrangements. I reiterate my gratitude to doctors & nursing staff for their help."
