The road that leads to Assam Medical College and Hospital (AMCH) via Old Court is in a absolute bad shape. We are sure; any patient who traverses that particular stretch suffers a lot due to heavy jerking he/she experiences which compounds the illness. Again, the horrible traffic-jams in front of the other nursing homes say, Sanjibani, Aditya, HM, GM and few others cause inordite delay in arriving at the casualty and other concerned departments of the hospital leading to deterioration of the health of the patient. Particularly, at the peak-hour, this traffic srl assumes a dangerous proportion that may result into the death of the patient. Interestingly enough, no traffic police can be seen to help easing the jam.
