Participating in ‘Eid Jalsa’, a celebration of Eid festival with the Wenlock hospital staff organized by the ‘M Friends’ at IMA hall here on Sunday, the DC said that general public along with the hospital staff and family members should join hands together to serve the patients in government hospitals.
