Arvind Kejriwal, the Chief Minister of Delhi and national convenor of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), visited Patiala, Punjab, where he joined Chief Minister Bhagwant Singh Mann and Health Minister Balbir Singh. In the rally, Kejriwal stated that just like Delhi, Punjab would also get "home delivery of govt services soon."

"Swasth Punjab" campaign launched

This visit included the opening of a dedicated unit at Mata Kaushalya Hospital and the commencement of the 'Swasth Punjab' campaign at the New Polo Ground (Aviation Club) on Patiala-Sangrur Road. Arvind Kejriwal said, "Today is a very important day for Punjab, as on the birth anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi, a health revolution is beginning in the state."

Continuing further, he added, "Government services will soon be delivered to people's homes in Punjab. The state will launch a similar doorstep delivery service facility system to that of Delhi. People will no longer need to go to government offices to get their work done; officials will come to your home to work for you."

The emphasis is now on improving secondary and tertiary-level hospitals. Hospital renovations are currently underway with the goal of providing free healthcare services. In phase one, we plan to transform 40 district hospitals while investing Rs 550 crores."

Punjab CM Bhagwant Mann speaks on scheme

Punjab CM Bhagwant Mann spoke about the scheme and explained, "In line with our health guarantee commitment, we have established Aam Aadmi clinics in Punjab, inspired by the Mohalla clinics in Delhi. Currently, there are 664 operational Aam Aadmi Clinics in Punjab. We are now directing our efforts towards district hospitals and Primary Health Centre (PHC) facilities. With a project budget of Rs. 550 crores, we have adapted and implemented the successful Delhi model in Punjab. In the coming 6-7 months, we anticipate that 80% of Punjab's hospitals will undergo upgrades, modernization, and improvements."
