Lucknow: Citing the case of deaths of over 100 infants in a government-run hospital in Kota, Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) president Mayawati on Saturday warned the Uttar Pradesh government and said appropriate steps should be taken to maintain the hospitals in the state.
पाकिस्तान स्थित गुरुनानक देव जी के जन्मस्थान गुरुद्वारा श्री ननकाना साहिब पर शुक्रवार को उग्र भीड़ द्वारा किया गया हमला अति-निन्दनीय। अपना देश स्वाभाविक तौर पर इससे चिन्तित है। इस मामले में केन्द्र सरकार को जरूर दखल देना चाहिए ताकि भविष्य में ऐसी कोई अप्रिय व अशोभनीय घटना न हो।

"After learning a lesson from the painful death of many children in Gorakhpur in UP, the government should be very cautious and should maintain its hospitals. Otherwise, it will not take any time to be like Rajasthan," Mayawati tweeted.
The former Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister said that the Congress does not seem to be sensitive about the death of innocent infants.BSP president had earlier demanded that CM Gehlot be dismissed and replaced by a new dispensation, claiming that otherwise more women will lose their children.
As per a government report, at least 91 infants lost their lives at the government hospital in Kota in December last year. Following the incident, the Ashok Gehlot-led Congress government has come under fire from the BJP and other Opposition parties in the state.(ANI)
