New Delhi: Health Minister Raaj Kumar Anand on Saturday made a surprise visit to the Chacha Nehru Bal Chikitsalaya and said any kind of negligence in providing healthcare facilities, will not be tolerated.

Apart from Delhi, patients from neighbouring states also visit the Chacha Nehru Bal Chikitsalaya. In such a situation, instructions have been given to make additional arrangements to manage the crowd, so that children and their families do not have to face any problem, he said.

Hospitals are being revamped to make Delhi’s health infrastructure among the best in the world, Anand said.
