The All India Institute of Medical Sciences and Safdarjung hospitals etc which cater to maximum patients are in real mess as while the number of patients in these two oldest hospital and many others are surging at these hospitals in view of the dearth of the necessary facilities and the negligent authorities not enhancing their capacities to cope with the latest situation as a result of which hundreds of patients are suffering and majority of them allegedly dying for want of addmission and subsequently in view of the lack of treatment.
The increasing apathy of these hospitals’ administration, negligence and prevailing laxity and incompetence in view of the union health minister JP Nadda being busy in his organisational affairs and hectic political involvement with the administrative authorities of these central government hospitals becoming defunct leading to the situation of these hospitals deteriorating day by day and patients of the lower middle class and those from the lowest ebb becoming the the worst sufferer including even the middle class patients have created choas in these hospitals.
Keeping in view these surging inefficiencies and apathy of the hospital administration and the medical fraternity – the leader of the BJP in Delhi Jagdish Mamgain has tried to bring these deficiencies to the knowledge of the prime minister Narendra Modi writing in detail on his Social media handle X urging to induct a new health minister immediately. Mamgain wrote in Hindi :
Prime Minister @narendramodi ji, Central Health Services in Delhi are in a bad state due to the busyness and incompetence of Health Minister @JPNadda! You spent a huge amount of Delhi residents’ tax money to build 4 important new blocks like Mother and Child Block, Surgery Block, National Old Age Block, National Cancer Institute in @aiims_newdelhi but they were not even started. 34 operating theaters, including the orthopedic department, were built, but they remain closed due to a lack of staff, doctors, and resources. Twenty-five operating theaters were built for cancer patients, but 18 remain closed.Mission ‘Delhi Emergency Life Heart Attack Initiative’ was started in AIIMS to provide initial treatment to heart attack patients at their homes.
Upon receiving a call at the control room, a trained paramedical staff would arrive within 15 minutes in a first responder bike ambulance carrying oxygen cylinders, defibrillator, ECG machine, clot buster injections and essential medicines.
The patient’s ECG report was sent to a doctor at AIIMS from the scene. If a heart attack is confirmed, there is also a provision to administer clot-buster medication to the patient at home.
Initially, 790 patients were helped, including 40 heart attack patients, until October 13, 2022. Expanding the program to meet the need, new bike ambulances were purchased, but the program has been stalled since then.
Why was a life-saving scheme discontinued? Why were new bikes purchased when they were never to be used? These bike ambulances have been gathering dust for the past three years.
Central Government Hospitals are AIIMS, Safdarjung, Dr. Ram Manohar Lohia, Lady Hardinge Medical College, Kalawati Saran Children’s Hospital, ESI Hospital Basai Darapur, CGHS Health Centres and Dispensaries across Delhi – but due to lack of staff, doctors, resources and mismanagement, patients have to wait for 3-5 years for necessary operations.
The patient’s condition becomes serious and sometimes he dies, in emergency situations patients need immediate medical attention.
Responsibility of praising the government while being the National President of @BJP4India, concern for financial increase of crores of rupees from government and private enterprises for the NGO ‘Chetana Sansthan’.
Due to the busy schedule of covering up the corruption and irregularities worth crores of rupees in the Central Government hospital, as the Union Health Minister, Mr. Nadda does not have time for the health concerns of the public and the work of the Ministry.
Prime Minister @narendramodi ji, please do a favor to the public, give the responsibility of the Health Ministry to a capable, full-time person who cares for the public and gives time. @rss @blsanthosh urged the BJP leader , former standing Council chairman in MCD Jagdish Mamgain.
