SRINAGAR, Nov 15: The Jammu and Kashmir National Conference today said that the health care system in the State should be upgraded to meet the rising demands of the people.
The party general secretary and MLA Khanyar, Ali Mohd Sagar paid a visit to JLNM Hospital at Rainawari in Srinagar and took stock of the situation in the hospital and inquired about the services being provided to the patients. He expressed his resentment over the condition of the hospital and services being provided to the patients.
“The need of the hour is to upgrade the infrastructure and machinery to meet the increasing rush of the patients. I will impress on the concerned Director and Commissioner / Secretary to increase the machinery and other apparatus required to meet the requirements of patients in the hospital,” he said.
Sagar also inspected the construction of additional hospital block whose construction is underway. “The estimated cost of the project is Rs. 19.27 crore and until now Rs. 6.5 crore have been spent on the hospital. This hospital is a tertiary care health facility. The incumbent Governor Administration should ensure all facilities to people who visit this hospital,” Sagar maintained.
