Chandigarh, July 23

Aam Aadmi Party senior leader and Leader of Opposition Harpal Singh Cheema, expressing concern over the “poor condition” of Covid-19 care centres in the state, alleged that due to incompetence and inept handling of the situation, the government-run centres were rather unsafe for patients.

In a statement, Cheema claimed that the Covid care centres in Bathinda, Mansa and Sanghera (Barnala) were in a pitiable condition, where doctors and paramedical staff were fighting the big battle against the epidemic without essential safety kits.

He said that the patients suffering from other ailments were suffering due to acute shortage of medicines at these centres, which was a bigger worry.
