BJP MLA Kajal slams Himachal govt over suspension of diagnostic services in hospitals

Ashok Raina
Dharamshala, Nov 4 (UNI) BJP vice-president and Kangra MLA Pawan Kajal on Tuesday strongly criticised the Himachal Pradesh government over the suspension of diagnostic testing services by Krishna Diagnostic Lab in government hospitals, alleging that the state government had failed to provide adequate healthcare facilities to people.
Kajal said patients at Dr Rajendra Prasad Government Medical College, Tanda, were facing shortages of essential medical supplies, including syringes, cotton, glucose and life-saving medicines. He alleged that the suspension of low-cost diagnostic services was forcing poor and middle-class patients to seek expensive treatment at private hospitals.
He demanded that the government clear the pending salaries of Krishna Diagnostic Lab employees before Diwali, keeping the interests of patients and employees in mind.
Addressing a public function at Vaidi in Kangra , Kajal also accused the Congress government of resorting to misleading propaganda against the Centre to divert attention from its failures.
He alleged that the government had failed to provide permanent employment to unemployed youth, while women were still waiting for the promised monthly financial assistance of Rs 1,500, even after four years.
