ITANAGAR: In a bid to help numerous patients from Arunachal Pradesh facing accomodation problems in metros where they go for availing medical assistance, Chief Minister Pema Khandu has directed state Chief Secretary to explore rented buildings in the vicinity of hospitals which are frequented by patients from the state.
In his directives, the chief minister asked the chief secretary that till such time a permanent solution is made to solve the accommodation hardship of the people from the state in metros, rented accommodation in New Delhi, Kolkota, Chennai, Vellore and Guwahati through the respective Resident Commissioner / Deputy Resident Commissioners be looked for on an urgent basis, an official release said on Friday.
Due to the lack of adequate health facilitiees in the state, patients go out of the state in large numbers to referral hospitals for treatment of various ailments.
With this, the patients are sure to get relief from the difficulty of finding an accommodation.
This move will also cut down on the cost of the huge expenses incurred only for accommodation in hotels or guest houses in the metro cities apart from the medical expenses, the release statement said on Friday. (PTI)
