But not only the patients, their family members also accompany them and have to wait for treatment. They often face food-related issues, which is why, with the help of Rogi Kalyan Samiti and the Rotary Club, we have decided to provide mid-day meals at just Rs 10 for the family members. <\/p>\n\n\n\n What I have seen is that rice, vegetables, egg curry, and dal are available. Getting such food for just Rs 10 is almost impossible. I want to thank and congratulate everyone involved in making this initiative possible. <\/p>\n\n\n\n We are undertaking such measures for the benefit of the people,\u201d he said. Dr. Saha also mentioned that the state government has proposed a scheme to construct a shelter house for the people. \u201cWe are taking one decision after another for the welfare of the people,\u201d he added. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Dr. Saha, who is also the Health Minister of the state, emphasized the importance of staying hydrated and advised people to avoid going outside without necessity in the hot and humid weather. \u201cEveryone must stay hydrated. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Last year, when the temperature increased, we announced the closure of schools. However, the situation has not yet reached that level, and we are keeping a close watch. Doctors are also advising children on what to do and what not to do in this hot weather,\u201d he stated. <\/p>\n\n\n\n During the program, Health Secretary Kiran Gitte, Health Director Dr. Sanjib Debbarma, Medical Superintendent of GB Pant Hospital Dr. Shankar Chakraborty, and Deputy Medical Superintendent Dr. Kanak Chowdhury were present.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" CM launches low-cost meal service for patients’ families at GB Pant Hospital Agartala: March 31: Chief Minister Prof. Dr. Manik Saha today launched mid-day meal services for the patients\u2019 families at Rs 10 in Agartala Government Medical College and GB Pant Hospital.
