1. यूपी में समुचित सुविधा के अभाव में जान जोखिम में डालकर कोरोना पीड़ितों की सेवा में लगे डाक्टरों पर सरकारी दबाव/धमकी से स्थिति बिगड़ रही है, जिस कारण ही वाराणसी में 32 स्वास्थ्य केन्द्र प्रभारियों का इस्तीफा। सरकार बिना भेदभाव व पूरी सुविधा देकर उनसे सेवा ले तो बेहतर होगा। 1/2

"Due to lack of proper facilities in UP, the situation is worsening due to government pressure/intimidation on the doctors engaged in the service of the corona victims by risking their lives, due to which in-charges of 32 health centres in Varanasi have given resignation. It would be better if the government provide them with complete facilities and takes service from them without discrimination," Mayawati tweeted.
The BSP chief alleged that the situation of health workers at corona centers and private hospitals are very bad due to which they are forced to attempt suicide.
"Also, the condition of corona health workers in corona centres and private hospitals is very bad, due to which they are forced to attempt suicide. It is very sad. BSP demands that the government should formulate policies by providing resources and implementing it," she said in another tweet.
