Mr. Varma let us not get limited by the statistical numbers. The fact is that there is a sea change in both the Quantitative as well as Qualitative Health services provided by Delhi Govt. hospitals and clinics.I used to be also apprehensive about visiting Govt hospitals. But my recent visit to three Delhi Hosp/clinics, a local Delhi clinic in janakpuri, superficiality hospital, Janakpuri and DDU hosp has changed my thought process. Within the limitations and challenges of huge population Govt health services caters to,they are doing stupendous job in providing free health services. I think at least on this front, AAP govt is doing a good work. more

It is definitely appreciable that eight (8) lakhs people are attended to at 105 mohalla clinics. The patients must have got a great relief in their life. Hope that improvement in the facilities at these clinics would have much better results addressing the problems of at least twenty (20) percent population in all cadres of Delhi. more
