Furthermore, Chaudhary called for the upgradation of the Manughat PHC in Ratanmani/Betaga ADC Village to a 24×7 Hospital, considering its remote location and urgent requirements.
He also emphasized the importance of elevating the Bankul PHC to a Community Hospital in the Sabroom Sub-Division, given its geographical significance and the size of the local population. Additionally, Chaudhary highlighted the necessity of enhancing the Srinagar PHC into a Community Hospital, as it is the sole healthcare facility serving the entire Poang Bari R.D. Block area.
Chaudhary expressed his hope that the Chief Minister’s office would consider these proposals, taking into account the geographical importance of the Sabroom Sub-Division and the well-being of its residents.
The response and actions of the Chief Minister regarding the CPIM MLA’s demands are eagerly awaited, as the public anticipates positive changes in the healthcare infrastructure of the Sabroom Sub-Division.
