JNN, Chandigarh. The Haryana government has opened the doors to the government treasury to help the poor people of their state suffering from Kovid. Under the special action plan, the state government has decided that due to lack of money, the treatment of any poor will not stop. Those people living below the poverty line, who are getting treatment at home i.e. home isolates, the government will provide a lump sum medical assistance amounting to five thousand rupees. This amount will be sent directly to the bank account of poor patients.
Haryana’s Home, Urban Bodies and Health Minister Anil Vij gave information about this important decision of the state government on Sunday. Earlier, Chief Minister Manohar Lal made a number of important announcements for the treatment of Corona patients, who had given priority to the treatment of the people of Haryana in private hospitals.
The Haryana government has already decided that the BPL card holder will be given a rebate of Rs 35,000 in the bill made for treatment for seven days in any hospital. Apart from this, Kovid registered hospitals will be given one thousand rupees per person per day, for a maximum of seven days, if the people of Haryana are admitted for their treatment here. That is, such hospitals will get the support amount of seven thousand rupees.
There are about 40 percent of patients in Haryana government hospitals who are from Delhi, but the government is not even refusing them for treatment. Despite this, the government wants that the patients of their state should get priority in treatment. The Chief Minister has already formed eight thousand teams to provide treatment to about 40 lakh families living in the rural areas of the state. A team will work on 500 families, which will provide relief to the people suffering from the corona epidemic in the village countryside.
There are 6700 villages in Haryana. The number of urban households is around 20 lakhs. There is also a plan to build a Kovid isolation center in every village. Home and Health Minister Anil Vij has also recently launched a kit which has the necessary equipment along with English and home medicines, which will be available to home isolated patients. There are about 98 thousand home isolate patients in the state. The kit costs five thousand rupees.
With the help of the Center, the government is moving fast in the direction of setting up 60 new oxygen plants in the state. Union Minister of State Rao Inderjit, Chief Minister Manohar Lal and Home Minister Anil Vij have stepped up efforts for this.
BPL poor will be able to benefit in this way
Home and Health Minister Anil Vij said that people belonging to home isolate BPL category must have a family identity card to get the benefit of the government’s lump sum amount of Rs. 5000.
