Mumbai has been hit quite badly too.
I have a feeling everyone in the districts lands up in Indian cities during such events cause the district/block level health care facilities in India are a crap shoot.
According to the sustainability dev goals India has 10 docs per 10k ppl. 30 per 10k if you include nurses and other support staff.
What can anyone do with such numbers when the tsunami hits other than say send the patient to the nearest city with the most resources.

While this is true, the opposite is also happening, where people from Mumbai/Pune are being admitted to hospitals in smaller cities where beds might be available. Patients from Mumbai, Pune, Goa, and other neighbouring districts have been reported in my district.
