Early Times Report
Jammu, May 24: On one side Pakistan has made lives of people living in Jammu's border areas hell by uninterrupted shelling and on the other side the Health department is leaving no chance to rub salt on their wounds by not providing the much-required health services to the affected people.
The hospitals of the border areas have not enough facilities including critical ambulances. These areas fall in Kathua, Samba, and Jammu district.
Despite knowing that cross-border firing and shelling have often led to heavy casualties, the respective district administration and the Health ministry have never taken this issue seriously.
Recently, two young boys, who had come with their injured relatives at Government Medical College and Hospital Jammu (GMC&H), tried to intercept the Health Minister when he was going back after checking victims of border firing at the GMC&H. But without listening to them, the minister left the spot.
The people criticized BJP ministers especially the Health Minister for making false claims that all health facilities were being given to the victims and said that they left border areas' people to die.
Exposing the claims of Health Ministry and Principal of GMC Jammu for keeping all medical facilities ready for the injured, the aggressive relatives of the injured accused Health department of not providing proper facilities.
They alleged that the callous attitude of the concerned could be gauged from the fact that not a single critical ambulance has been deployed since the cross-border firing began.
The irate relatives of the injured victims not only raised slogans against the state government but also slammed the working of the concerned hospital authorities. |
