Bharatpur Hospital saw an increase in out-patient department (OPD) services on Monday, with over 3,200 patients seeking care, following the government's decision for a two-day weekly holiday on Saturdays and Sundays. Previously, the hospital served around 2,500 patients daily. The surge in patients has led to problems in referring patients, with one individual complaining of delays for eye treatment. Hospital officials stated preparations are underway to provide referral services through a separate unit to streamline the process.
