Accusing the TRS government of totally diluting the Arogyasri scheme started by the previous Congress government, TPCC working presidents T. Jayaprakash Reddy and J. Geetha Reddy said the entire medicare system was destroyed under the TRS rule with poor and middle classes denied access to good medical care.
In response to Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao visiting the Mohalla Clinics in New Delhi, the Congress leaders said Mr. Rao would have realised the sorry state of affairs in hospitals in Telangana had he visited the government hospitals here. “While totally forgetting the promises made to people regarding the health sector, the CM could not even continue the Arogyasri scheme that brought private healthcare to poor people.”
