The CPI leader alleged that the senior authorities of Bihar government have banned the admission of patients in the emergency of Patna All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS), Indira Gandhi Institute of Medical Sciences (IGIMS), PMCH and Nalanda Medical College Hospital (NMCH) at night following patients are forced to go to private nursing homes which have become a centre of loot in the name of treatment.
