Bureau report : The Punjab government is going to convert 580 village dispensaries into Aam Aadmi clinics. This decision has been taken to improve the primary health facility of the villagers. Due to lack of funds for 17 years, they were in a bad condition. In the third phase of the Mohalla Clinic, these dispensaries will now be converted into Aam Aadmi clinics.
According to the sources, the health department has instructed all the civil surgeons to prepare a list of those centers which can be converted into Aam Aadmi clinics. According to the information, 4 Aam Aadmi Party clinics will be opened in large districts while 2 will be opened in small districts. The health department claims that Aam Aadmi clinics will improve health facilities in rural areas and people will get free medicines and testing facilities.
The health department says that the rural dispensaries will get the grant for the first time after 17 years, since 2006 the rural dispensaries got the grant from the rural and panchayat department. But due to non-receipt of grant, the condition of rural dispensaries became bad. According to the health department, dispensaries are the first step in villages to fight any diseases, but they themselves were running sick for years, due to lack of funds, no one paid attention to it.
In 2006, 1,186 rural dispensaries of the state were transferred by the health department to the rural development and panchayat department to provide good health facilities to the rural people, but since then the level has continued to decline. After which 550 dispensaries were again handed over to the health department. That is why the government has now decided that it will improve health facilities by converting these dispensaries into Aam Aadmi Clinics.
