The Story in Brief
Millenniumpost.in reports that former Haryana chief minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda has said the Punjab and Haryana High Court expressed deep concern over the state's health services. Hooda claimed the court pointed to a severe shortage of doctors and a lack of basic amenities in district hospitals.
He said hundreds of posts for medical officers and specialist doctors have remained vacant for years, and the government has shown no interest in filling them. The court was reportedly compelled to mandate that every district hospital must have at least one CT scan machine, one MRI machine, and an ICU facility.
The Indian Opinion
Hooda’s attack is part of a predictable political blame game, but the High Court’s recorded concern cannot be dismissed as mere rhetoric. Health infrastructure deficiencies affect both ruling and opposition states. The real test will be whether the Haryana government files an affidavit with a clear plan to fill the vacant posts within a fixed deadline.
