<p>No better than KEM Hospital, mid-day finds many of the same problems plaguing Sion hospital as well - expired fire extinguishers, choked emergency exits and a long waiting list for CT scan - apart from those of dangling wires and rude doctors</p>

As many as 200 emergency cases every single day - that's the load the Lokmanya Tilak Municipal General Hospital, more popularly known as Sion hospital, receives. And yet infrastructure, more like the lack of it, paints a dark picture. Some sections of the hospital are undergoing construction, but the issue is of patients' rights and their right to basic facilities, on which counts the medical institution falls miserably short.
