DESPITE SPENDING OVER 50 CRORE, THE COMMON MAN IS NOT GETTING GOOD HEALTHCARE FACILITIES: BHAI DINESH

RAJIV NAYAN AGRAWAL

ARA--------------------------RJD leader and former MLA from Jagdishpur, Bhojpur, Bhai Dinesh, said that more than 50 crore rupees are being spent every month on sub-health centers, primary health centers, additional health centers, government health centers, subdivisional hospitals, and the Sadar Hospital in Bhojpur.  Despite this, patients are being referred to private hospitals. The doctors appointed to government hospitals are committing a great injustice to the public. Why is the government and the district administration remaining silent?

Bhai Dinesh said that complaints have been received that doctors at Ara Sadar Hospital are asking patients to get treatment at their private hospitals. This matter should be known to the District Magistrate of Bhojpur and the Civil Surgeon of Bhojpur, as they are responsible for the hospital's management.

Former MLA Bhai Dinesh has expressed concern over this issue and demanded action. He said that patients are facing difficulties due to the shortage of doctors and mismanagement in the hospital.

The district administration and the health department should take immediate action in this matter and improve the system in the hospital.

Bhai Dinesh asked how doctors appointed to government hospitals can run their own private clinics. This is a gross violation of government rules. Will the government take action against such doctors who are taking government salaries and also running their private clinics, extorting money in the name of arbitrary fees, tests, and medicines?

Bhai Dinesh said that in our state, where 75 to 80 percent of the population lives below the poverty line and are not getting timely and proper treatment, and are dying due to lack of treatment, government doctors are still running private clinics and looting people. Clinics are operating in every village without proper accreditation, leading to reports of deaths due to improper treatment and administration of medicines and injections without proper diagnosis. Despite this, the government and the administration are turning a blind eye and a deaf ear. Is this good governance?
