Kirron Kher tweets #helpmycity, tags PMO, Shah, Nadda

-

CHANDIGARH: City MP Kirron Kher in a tweet on Wednesday tagged PMO, home minister Amit Shah, Union health minister Harsh Vardhan, UT administra­tor VP Singh Bandore, and BJP president JP Nadda, and said, “#Helpmycity PGI & other hospitals are under immense pressure. If medical facilities are not allowed in various parts of the city there will be fatalities due to #nobeds. I urge the Administra­tion to take necessary action.”

Reacting to Kher’s tweet, Congress leader Devinder Singh Babla said, “It is very unfortunat­e that even during these hard times, the MP is nowhere to be seen. These occasional tweets will do no good for the city. Instead, the MP should at least participat­e in the war room meetings.”

Kher had earlier asked the UT administra­tion to allow new nursing homes to be built on residentia­l plots, but a committee of the advisory council had rejected it last month. Meanwhile, UT adviser Manoj Parida said they will act on the suggestion­s of the MP.
