Delhi L-G approves Arvind Kejriwal government proposal to outsource mohalla clinics

Delhi Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena gave his nod to a proposal to outsource private diagnostic and lab services to mohalla clinics on Wednesday. “Expressing grave reservations on an obvious attempt at private outsourcing of Diagnostic Services in Delhi government hospitals, rather than strengthening them, LG VK Saxena has agreed to the Kejriwal government decision to outsource diagnostic and lab services in government hospitals to three private players, as a fait accompli presented to him,” Raj Niwas statement reads. Earlier on 28 July, the Kejriwal cabinet decided to outsource these mohalla clinics, hospitals, dispensaries, polyclinics, and health camps, including PUHCs.
