Around 100 people as an outbreak of gastroenteritis was reported in two villages under Chandrakona Town police station of East Midnapore district, CMOH Dr G C Bera said today.
Altogether 37 were hospitalised while a medical team has been sent to the area.
A large section of people of Chaltabandi and Inda villages drink water coming out from shallow pumps and that caused the problem since last night, Bera said.
