New Delhi: The people of Sahibabad are in for a major, long-needed gift. There had been a vocal and pending demand by the locals to build a government hospital in the area, which has now reached a favourable outcome. This demand had intensified after the death of a pregnant woman of Khoda Colony.
To address the issue, the area’s Lok Sabha MP General VK Singh wrote to UP Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath to construct a hospital to alleviate the sufferings of the local populace. The General, as always, led from the front and has now paved the way for the government hospital to be set up in Sahibabad assembly constituency. The project has been cleared.
The hard work of Yogesh Tripathi, the regional office in-charge of the Bharatiya Janata Party, paid off. He was given the responsibility of finding land for the hospital, which he found at four places in a single day. After this, the way has been cleared for it to become a government hospital here. Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath also praised Yogesh Tripathi’s working style and directed the health department officials that the local inspection and review work should be completed within a week.
