After Covid deaths, new med colleges mean nothing: BSP

Lucknow:27.10.2021
A day after PM Narendra Modi inaugurated nine medical colleges in UP, BSP general secretary and MP Satish Chandra Mishra called it an election ploy and said those who had lost their loved ones during the Covid-19 pandemic due to lack of health facilities would never forget the government’s apathy.
“During the tenure of Behenji (Mayawati), human life was prioritised and important development works were done in healthcare. This included setting up of seven medical colleges, two homeopathic colleges and two paramedical colleges. Mobile medical vans were also started,” Mishra said on Tuesday. The SP and then BJP governments halted the speed of development, he alleged.
“We got to witness the result of this during the Covid-19 pandemic when people were forced to run around for medicines and other health facilities. Now when elections are nearing, these people have started inaugurating projects. However, families which lost their loved ones due to the government’s mismanagement and its insensitivity will never forget it,” he said.
