AAP volunteers to provide Oximeter Services in villages to prevent Corona: Jarnail Singh

Jalandhar, 2 September, 2020 (Yes Punjab News)
Holding the ruling Congress and the previous SAD-BJP government equally responsible for the collapse of the government health facilities during corona epidemic in Punjab, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has launched a state level campaign to provide oximeters to villages.

Leader of the Opposition Harpal Singh Cheema and Incharge of Punjab Affairs Jarnail Singh (MLA) launched the oximeter campaign while interacting with media here on Wednesday.

According to AAP leaders, whereas the purpose of the Oximeter campaign is to make the general public aware of the corona and motivate them to take precautionary measures to prevent the disease, it is also aimed at waking up the government sleeping in the farmhouse so that Raja sahib instead of Instead of making scary predictions about the outbreak, work rigorously to control this rampant epidemic as the Arvind Kejriwal government in Delhi has done .

Harpal Singh Cheema said that the Corona epidemic had proved that the Amarinder Singh government is the most irresponsible and useless government ever.

“The government’s campaign against Corona for Mission Fateh and other health services has failed miserably and is in a state of despair,” said Cheema. From the last 20-25 years, the governments of the Raja and the Badals have ruined the public health in connivance with the private health mafia.

If the Kejriwal government has won exemplary victory against Corona in Delhi, one of the main reasons behind this victory is the revolutionary work done in the public health services in the last five years. Second, the Kejriwal government has unhesitatingly adopted the best model to counter the Corona, but the Punjab government is neither learning from its mistakes nor is it ready to adopt the Delhi model. No mission can be won because of such an arrogant and irresponsible attitude ”

The Leader of the Opposition, while raising doubts over the Chief Ministe’s claim of having spent Rs. 500 on the war against Corona, said that doctors and paramedics were constrained to work overtime due to severe shortage of staff and were getting infected from deadly virus due to lack of safety kits and necessary equipment, while other health workers are forced to protest against the government’s apathy and unfulfilled promises.

While No new hospital was built, Corona Care Centers are in dire straits then where did the government spend Rs. 500 crore? Cheema demanded issuing of white paper in the matter.
On the occasion, Jarnail Singh said that on the pattern of Delhi, Aam Aadmi Party is distributing oximeters in the villages and localities of Punjab so that people could detect the lack of oxygen in the body due to corona at an early stage.

Jarnail Singh said that the skilled volunteers of the party would go door to door to check the oxygen level of the villagers through an oximeter and help people with low oxygen levels in getting the required treatment.

Jarnail Singh said the Kejriwal government in Delhi spends 14 per cent of its GDP on healthcare. In Punjab, the present Congress and previous Badal governments have spent less than the national average on health services due to which the condition of government dispensaries and hospitals including Corona Care Centers in Punjab today is very pitiable.
On this occasion Gary Baring, Govinder Mittal, Raj Lali Gill, Dr. Dr. Shiv Dayal Mali Sanjeev Sharma and Kartar Singh Pehalwan were also present.
