Srinagar, Aug 11: Sakina Ittoo, Minister while stating that the system lacks accountability said that the Government is working to restore it to instill public confidence & after the formation of the Government in J&K, people are now speaking up, knowing that their complaints will be addressed.
This speaking up publics trust in the elected Government but added that there are shortcomings in the system and a lot that needs to be set right. There are no traces of accountability, and restoring it is the responsibility of the Government. We are working to ensure this so that people feel confident.
On the issue of medical negligence reported from hospitals, she said the matter is not new and that wherever complaints were received, prompt action was ensured.
She added there are also doctors posted in far-off areas for over 10 years. They also deserve to be shifted, and I have ensured these orders are implemented.
She added that we have been here for the last eight months & we do not have a magic wand to set things right overnight. The shortages of Doctors will be addressed with time.
