V.K. Sreekandan, MP, called upon industries to come forward to address the complicated health issues of the tribal community in Attappady.
Speaking after flagging off an ambulance donated by Bharat Petroleum Corporation Ltd (BPCL) to Swami Vivekananda Medical Mission Hospital at Agali on Wednesday, Mr. Sreekandan said ambulances with critical care facilities would go a long way in preventing deaths of patients while being shifting from Attappady to referral hospitals in Thrissur and Palakkad.
Mr. Sreekandan said several people had lost their lives in transit because of lack of ambulances with critical care facilities.
