Several private medical hospitals are still delaying handing over beds to the Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP). On Saturday, Chief Commissioner Gaurav Gupta visited Vikram Hospital, Shifaa Hospital, and HBS Hospital and directed health officials to issue show-cause notices to the managements for failing to comply. This is the second time in a week that the civic body has served notice to Vikram Hospital.
