Dr Shahnawaz, who was allegedly assaulted, told KNO that he was at medical reception when a patient was brought there and after checking the patient, his vitals were not recorded and he was sent to triage room for further investigation but eventually the patient died.

He said that after the death of the patient, one of the patient’s attendants came and kicked him. “We are here for the welfare and treatment of patients not to get assaulted,” he said, demanding a high-level probe into the matter.

The assault triggered a massive protest by resident doctors, interns and other staff of the Government Medical College (GMC) Srinagar and its associated hospitals. They assembled inside the hospital premises, raising slogans and demanding immediate action against the perpetrator.

Meanwhile, the college administration said legal action has been initiated and an FIR (No. 11/2025) has been registered at the concerned police station.

Notably, this is the second such incident in J&K in the last few days where doctor has been assaulted. Last week a female doctor at Government Medical College (GMC) Jammu was allegedly assaulted by attendants of a patient following his death in the hospital’s emergency ward—(KNO)
