Leveling series of allegations and exposing ill deeds of greedy doctors Sharma said,” it is widely seen doctors compel the patients to visit their private clinics rather treating them in the govt hospitals. He said there is no check on the consultation fee .They are charging as high as Rs 200 as the consultation fee per sitting. These doctors also refer these patients to the private clinical laboratories of their own choice for various necessary tests and get an fixed amount of commission ranging from 30%to40% from the laboratories. He said that the poor people could not afford this much amount due to which poor people remain untreated and the govt has become a mere spectator taking no steps regarding the same. He said that besides this most of the chemist shops in city are being illegally operating and the departments responsible to check this illegal operation are rather filling their pockets to keep themselves shut.
Sharma also mentioned dissatisfaction over the butchered display of animals in the various meat shops in the city which hurts the sentiments of the Hindu community.He warned the chairman Jammu Municipal Corporatioon (JMC) to cancel the licenses of those meat vendors immediately otherwise their party will start agitation against them.
