Now, BJP targets Aam Aadmi Party on Mohalla clinics

Sentinel Digital Desk

New Delhi: After contesting the Aam Aadmi Party’s stand on improvement in Delhi’s education system, the BJP on Thursday trained its guns on another of the Kejriwal government’s pet projects – the Mohalla Clinics.

BJP President JP Nadda posted a two-minute video clip on his Twitter timeline, wherein Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal claims construction of 1,000 Mohalla Clinics, which he has repeated every year.

Nadda wrote: “Mr. Kejriwal, you promised to open 1,000 Mohalla clinics every year. Far from opening 1,000 clinics, whatever is thrown open, there are neither medicines nor any facilities. The shallow politics of AAP has also deprived the poor of Modi Ji's ‘Ayushman Bharat Yojana’, which offers free treatment of up to Rs 5 lakh annually to the poor of Delhi.”

Union Home Minister Amit Shah launched a scathing attack on Kejriwal: “After the education revolution, now the health revolution of the Kejriwal government is exposed. Will the poor of Delhi get their operation done in this?” (IANS)
