Delhi Lieutenant Governor Anil Baijal directed authorities to ensure that medical treatment is not denied to any patient on the grounds of not being a resident of Delhi.
Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on June 7 had announced that state-run hospitals will be available only for Delhiites due to rising COVID-19 cases.
After Lieutenant Governor Anil Baijal overruled Aam Aadmi Party government's decision to allow admission of only Delhi's coronavirus patients in government hospitals, Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia accused the BJP of pressurising the LG of staying Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal's decision.
"BJP pressurised Lieutenant Governor and made him overrule our decision, now priority will not be given to people of Delhi in Delhi hospitals.
Why is BJP doing politics over COVID-19 and trying to fail the policies of state governments," Sisodia said.
