Absolutely devastated to know how a mother and a father who is a soldier, and their family lost their 1.5-year-old son in #Uttarakhand after being forced to rush between 5 hospitals due to a failed referral and ambulance system. This is not a tragedy, its a hugely broken insensitive system in shambles.
All this talk of doubling GDP, growing the economy, building expressways is absolutely meaningless if we cannot protect our own citizens, and cannot provide even basic ambulance services to those who need them the most.
Just two weeks ago, renowned folks singer Ganesh Martolia lost his sister and grandmother from Munsiyari the same way, denied timely care due to a crumbling health referral and inadequate transport system.
On a personal note, this hurts me deeply. As someone who has worked very closely in public health and emergency care in Uttarakhand, I know how many of these deaths are avoidable. Our public health system is not only failing but in one way or the other is party to this very callousness that takes the lives of our own citizens.
PS : Uttarakhand CM Shri @pushkardhami has expressed regret over this most unfortunate death of a toddler late last evening. While I appreciate the fact that he has spoken about this issue and asked the Kumaon Commissioner to conduct an enquiry; the rot in the widely prevalent referral system in public health establishments across Uttarakhand needs to be checked, curbed and corrected. This can only happen when the healthcare system is ready to accept its shortcomings and prepared to transform its working methods and processes.
On another note, for everyone who is to be referred to another hospital in the hills, isn't it better to straight away direct them to come to come to Haldwani or Dehradun to save time? Why ask the patients and their families to run from one hospital/town to another before succumbing to their injuries or ailments as in the above case where the family had to go to 5 hospitals?
As a constructive suggestion, I would like to urge Shri Dhami to consider dramatically strengthening private ambulance services in Uttarakhand. I have a few suggestions that I will be sharing with the Chief Ministers Office in the coming days. Its vital to consider that if we cant fix our hospitals right, the least we can do is to create a massive network of functional ambulance services across the length and breadth of the state.

Why Planning is important?
One Night 4 college students were playing till late night and could not study for the test which was scheduled for the next day.
In the morning they thought of a plan. They made themselves look as dirty with grease and dirt. They then went up to the Dean and said that they had gone out to a wedding last night and on their return the tyre of their car burst and they had to push the car all the way back and that they were in no condition to appear for the test.
So the Dean said they could have the re-test after 3 days. They thanked him and said they would be ready by that time.
On the third day they appeared before the Dean. The Dean said that as this was a Special Condition Test, all four were required to sit in separate classrooms for the test. They all agreed as they had prepared well in the last 3 days.
The Test consisted of 2 questions with a total of 100 Marks.
See Below for the question Paper:
Q.1. Your Name .........
(2 MARKS)
Q.2.. Which tyre burst?
(98 MARKS)
a) Front Left
b) Front Right
c) Back Left
d) Back Right

@myogioffice@myogiadityanath It's good that sports are being promoted in UP, but the mountaineers should also be supported. I have climbed 4 International mountains but haven't received any support from the government or department. Others are getting job, cash price but we are getting nothing.

Biggest challenge for #Uttarakhand is balance between development, disasters & climate change. Its critical govts recognise limitations of their policy decisions. Its important people realise their roles in development of resilient society. Course correction is the need of hour!
