Patna: Senior BJP leader Sushil Kumar Modi on Monday blamed the Grand Alliance government for the dengue outbreak and claimed that all records in the state have been broken. Modi was interacting with the media here after visiting the dengue ward of Patna Medical College and Hospital (PMCH), the state's largest government health facility.
Sushil Kumar Modi said preventive steps should be taken in August itself when CM Nitish Kumar and Deputy CM Tejashwi Yadav were busy forming a new government. According to the state health committee, 295 new cases of dengue were reported on Sunday. Since January, the number of dengue patients has gone up to 7,871. Modi alleged, the government never bothered about fogging and never cared about anti-larva spray. Machines are compiling dust in the hospital. The Deputy CM never bothered to hold a review meeting of the department. CM is busy with his national program. In another incident, veteran CPI leader and a four-time member of Bihar Legislative Council Kedar Nath Pandey passed away on Monday. Pandey, 79, breathed his last in the wee hours at a hospital in Gurugram, where he was admitted after suffering a brain haemorrhage. Governor Phagu Chauhan, CM Nitish Kumar and Deputy CM Tejashwi Yadav condoled the death of Pandey, who had been representing the Saran Teachers constituency of the Upper House since 2002.
