No tender process, Contract period increasing every year

Sambalpur: In a shocking display of brutality, security guards at Vimsar in Sambalpur were accused of severely beating a patient’s relative. The incident has been reported to police, and there are visible signs of assault on the victim’s body. The Burla SDPO confirmed that the investigation is ongoing.

Details of the Incident

Today, a relative of a patient from the Bargarh region visited Vimsar to collect a report. While attempting to enter the RDIC area, a security guard stopped him and told him to wait outside. When the relative insisted on proceeding, the guard allegedly requested reinforcements. The victim claims that four or five security guards then attacked him, causing visible injuries.

Police Involvement

The injured relative immediately filed a complaint with the Burla police station. After a medical examination revealed multiple bruises, the police filed a case and launched an investigation. However, no arrests have been made yet.

Past Incidents and Concerns

This is not the first time security personnel at Vimsar have been accused of such behavior. Despite previous complaints, the Vimsar administration has taken no significant action. Instead, the security contract has been repeatedly extended without following proper tendering procedures.

Security Firm Under Scrutiny

For the past 14 years, Executive Security Private Limited has been providing security services at Vimsar. The firm’s contract was initially for two years but has been extended annually. Notably, many of this firm’s security guards have criminal records, raising serious concerns about their suitability for such an important role.

Public Outcry and Questions

The recent incident has sparked public outrage. Questions have been raised about who is allowing these guards to act with such impunity and why the Vimsar administration continues to hire a firm with a history of allegations.

• Why are security personnel with criminal backgrounds employed in a sensitive environment like a hospital?
• Who is benefiting from this continued association with the controversial security firm?
• Why are the authorities silent and inactive despite repeated complaints?

Conclusion

The patient’s relative, who has clearly been assaulted, is demanding justice. The community is waiting for the Vimsar administration to take firm action against the security personnel involved and reevaluate their contract with Executive Security Private Limited. The resolution of this incident is critical for restoring trust in the institution’s ability to ensure safety and enforce the law.
