MARGAO: The Congress on Saturday alleged that Health Minister Vishwajit Rane has a hidden agenda to privatise the South Goa District Hospital.
Stating that the press conference of Health Minister on Friday made things clear of his hidden agenda, the Congress vowed to go all out to oppose any such move.
Goa Pradesh Congress Committee (GPCC) president Girish Chodankar said, “The Health Minister, while admitting that all hospitals including private hospitals serving COVID patients are full, has maintained a conspicuous silence on making the South Goa District Hospital fully functional.”
He demanded that the entire hospital be made functional immediately.
“The BJP government has completely failed in handling and managing the COVID situation in Goa. Time is passing with huge spike in positive cases. If government fails to take pro-active steps now, the Congress will launch an aggressive State-wide agitation for which the BJP government will be responsible,” the GPCC president warned.
