Opposition leader Jairam Thakur slams government’s healthcare failures and deceit

In response to the unsatisfactory statement on the functioning of Krsna Lab, opposition leader Jairam Thakur questioned, “If the work was not satisfactory, what has the government been doing for the past year?” He expressed concern about the state of healthcare services, criticizing the government’s ability to handle the situation lightly.
“People are forced to spend a significant amount for tests that were once free,” he said. “We provided the convenience of free treatment up to five lakh under Ayushman and Him Care, but the Sukhu government is depriving people of this facility.” Thakur accused the government of spreading dissatisfaction and disappointment, relying solely on false statements to run the administration.

Highlighting issues in the healthcare system, Thakur mentioned that patients are wandering without proper examinations, compelled to undergo costly tests at private labs. He criticized the Health Minister’s statement that Krsna Lab’s work was unsatisfactory, calling it shameful.
Thakur questioned the basis of the Health Minister’s statement, urging the government to disclose its actions if the work was indeed unsatisfactory.

Thakur accused the Congress-led Sukhu government of not only being dissatisfied with their work but also operating solely on deceit. He criticized the government for imposing locks on hospitals and restricting people’s access to examinations and treatment.

He highlighted the initial promises of the Congress party to bring about positive changes in governance and healthcare but criticized the current state of life, where people are facing difficulties in accessing examinations and treatment. Thakur expressed concern that the government is failing to fulfill its social responsibilities and called for transparency in its actions.
