Congress President Kuldeep Singh Rathore today launched a free ambulance service for corona patients. This ambulance would be run by the State Congress Committee from Congress Headquarters Rajiv Bhawan. This ambulance has the facility of administering oxygen and will be available 24 hours to help the needy people. Rathore said that Congress has arranged 28 ambulances with oxygen, free of cost in the state, which are serving the corona-infected people day and night throughout the state .
Rathore said that in view of the shortage of beds in hospitals in the state, the State Congress Committee has decided that two meeting halls of Rajiv Bhavan, Congress headquarters, with an area of four thousand square feet, have been offered to the State Government through Governor to be used as isolation wards. He said that these two halls can accommodate around 200 beds. He said that if the government accepts his proposal, then Congress will also make complete arrangements for free and nutritious food for the people here. He said that the Rajiv Bhavan being close to the Covid Hospital and connected to the main cart road could prove to be very useful to the people affected by the Covid. He said that he has written a letter to the Governor in this regard and he has also informed the District Deputy Commissioner and Chief Medical Officer Shimla in this regard. In an informal conversation with the journalists, Congress President Kuldeep Singh Rathore said that Congress is doing its best to help all the people affected by Corona. He said that from rationing the poor to bringing them to the hospital, Congress is doing all possible kinds of help. He said that Congress has set up relief centers in all the districts and blocks of the state besides the state headquarters.
Kuldeep Singh Rathore said that under the leadership of former minister G.S. Bali, who is in charge of Corona relief works in the state, the distribution of Covid relief kits was being done up to the block level.
He said that all the MLAs, former MLAs, District Presidents, Block Presidents of the party are engaged in the service of the people in these relief works in their respective areas. He expressed his gratitude to all the office-bearers and workers of the party involved in this service on behalf of the Congress party. Rathore has advised the State Government to use the vacant hotels in the state for isolation instead of making make-shift hospitals, said that this can give some financial relief to those hoteliers who have taken loans of lakhs from banks and on which interest is increasing day by day but will also decrease the cost of construction of these makeshift hospitals.
