Health and Family Welfare Minister Dinesh Gundu Rao on Friday visited an Aam Aadmi Mohalla clinic in New Delhi and later put out a message on X (formerly Twitter) that he had come back feeling “disappointed”.
While his visit was earlier welcomed by Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, Mr. Rao’s remark hours later came as a surprise. He said: “Visited a Mohalla Clinic in Delhi with hardly any people there. Our clinics in Karnataka have more facilities including a laboratory to do immediate tests for patients. I guess it is overhyped and I came back feeling disappointed.”
This comes at a time when the Opposition parties are trying to portray a united front ahead of the 2024 Lok Sabha polls.
