State-run Indira Gandhi Memorial Hospital IGMH has denied social media reports that stated that the hospital has stopped doing surgeries.

In a post on X, IGMH confirmed that the hospital has not temporarily halted any surgeries being done at the hospital.

The Hospital strongly condemned the spread of such untrue information on social media and advised the public to spread the information responsibly.

The reports on social media suggested that the Hospital had run out of vital consumables used in surgeries. The reports also said that this was the reason that the hospital has pushed back non-emergency surgeries and is only carrying out emergency surgeries at the hospital.

IGMH is one of the busiest hospitals in the country with patients from across the country seeking its services daily.
