Patna, Bihar – In a shocking incident that unfolded on Monday afternoon at the Patna Medical College and Hospital (PMCH), BJP leader and popular YouTuber Manish Kashyap was allegedly assaulted by a group of junior doctors. The incident has sparked controversy, with both sides presenting conflicting versions of the event.
What Led to the Clash?
According to eyewitnesses and preliminary reports, Manish Kashyap had visited PMCH to advocate for a patient. During his visit, he allegedly got into a heated argument with a group of female doctors. Things quickly escalated, leading to a physical altercation. Junior doctors claim that Manish misbehaved with their female colleagues, which provoked the violent response.
However, Kashyap’s supporters strongly deny these allegations. They claim that the BJP leader was merely requesting proper treatment for a patient when the doctors started arguing without reason. “There was no misbehavior from Manish Kashyap’s side. The doctors acted aggressively and physically assaulted him, injuring his face,” said a supporter at the scene.
Allegations of Being Held Hostage
The situation intensified further when Manish Kashyap’s team alleged that he was held hostage inside the hospital premises following the altercation. According to them, doctors locked him in a room and refused to let him leave for a considerable period. “It took a lot of negotiation and public outcry before he was finally released,” one of his supporters said.
Both Parties File Complaints
Following the incident, the matter reached the local police station. Representatives from both sides — Manish Kashyap’s team and PMCH’s medical staff — filed formal complaints. While Kashyap’s team insists he was assaulted and unlawfully detained, the doctors maintain that they were merely reacting to inappropriate behavior directed toward their colleagues.
Medical Fraternity Responds
The hospital administration has yet to issue an official statement. However, sources within PMCH claim that the issue is being internally reviewed and appropriate action will be taken once all facts are verified.
Public Reaction and Political Implications
The incident has garnered massive attention on social media, with videos and images of an injured Manish Kashyap circulating widely. As a known face both in media and political circles, Kashyap’s assault has triggered reactions from BJP leaders, some of whom have demanded a thorough probe.
The altercation also highlights ongoing tensions between the public and healthcare professionals, especially when political figures get involved in medical matters.
This high-voltage drama at one of Bihar’s leading government hospitals is far from over. As investigations continue, the public awaits clear answers. Was it a case of medical professionals defending their dignity or an example of misuse of power and position?
One thing is certain — this incident has raised serious questions about conduct, accountability, and the boundaries of political interference in healthcare institutions.
