Jora for regularisation of SDHs in Khaltse, Nyoma

Congress leader and former minister, Nawang Rigzin Jora has appealed to the government to regularise the “internally upgraded” sub-district hospitals at Khaltse and Nyoma.

Jora in a letter to Advisor Vijay Kumar says: “Leh district with an area of 45100 sq km has only one sub district hospital besides the district hospital. There are two primary health centres, which have been operating as sub district hospitals through internal adjustment: One at Khaltsi which is midway between Leh and Kargil. The other one at Nyoma which is at a distance of 145km from Leh towards the Chinese border.

   

“At both the places, the infrastructure in terms of building equipment and even central heating has been created. Both are functioning as sub district hospitals through internal adjustment of special doctors and staff.”

The letter further reads: “What is needed is regularisation of these as sub district hospitals through creation of posts.”
