BJP MLA calls for separate hospital wing for Muslims

Speaking to ANI, the Deputy Chief Minister stated it was a longstanding demand of the people and the MLA of Ballia, which the chief minister Adityanath has fulfilled now.

"For a long time, the people of Balia have been demanding a medical college in the area. Ballia MLA Dayashankar Pandey, who is also state's Transport Minister, has also demanded to build a medical college in the area. UP CM has decided that a medical college will be built in Ballia. We are moving forward with this proposal with the land-acquiring process..." Pathak told ANI.

The Deputy Chief Minister, who holds the portfolio of the state's Health and Welfare Ministry, also highlighted the medical preparations, stating that all medical practitioners and administrations have been advised to keep all hospitals on alert and be ready to deal with all kinds of situations.

He said, "For Holi, all medical practitioners and administrations have been advised to keep all hospitals on alert and be ready to deal with all kinds of situations; leaves have been cancelled. In hospitals, all facilities will be ensured."

Meanwhile, Opposition parties have slammed statement by MLA Ketakee Singh , questioning whether the BJP will support or distance itself from such comments.

Juhie Singh, Spokesperson of the Samajwadi Party and the leader of the Women's Wing of the SP said, "It is sad that the Governement says that the medical college will be named after the great revolutionary Chittu Pandey and the legislator there who neither knows the history of Ballia nor knows the ideology of Chittu Pandey, reports ANI.

"They make such irresponsible and senseless statements. Such people have no help or ability to become public representatives and the government should take action against them.... Such people have no right to go to the Assembly,' said Juhie Singh.
