Maddila Gurumoorthy, the YCP MP, has raised some questions to Nara Lokesh, who tweeted accusing Gurumoorthy of spreading fake reports that the Alliance Government has reduced the procedures under Arogyasree from 3,257 to 1,949.
Let’s take a look at what’s there in Gurumoorthy's tweet.
"If your father, @ncbn, is the creator of fake news, then Minister @naralokesh, you are the propagator of it. Isn't that exactly what you've been doing against the YSRCP government for the past five years? We have some questions for you regarding Arogyashri. Please answer them:
1. Did you issue orders to the lower-level officers to study the reduction of procedures under Arogyashri from 3,257 to 1,949? Or not?
2. During your tenure, only 1,000 procedures were covered under Arogyashri, but when the YSRCP government came to power, the number increased to 3,257. How many of these are still operational?
3. Under the YSRCP government, Mr. Jagan Mohan Reddy expanded Arogyashri to offer free medical treatment up to â¹25 lakhs. Is this still in effect, or did you remove it?
4. Can you tell us how many arrears remain under Arogyashri and how much has been paid so far?
5. Is there Arogya Asara scheme in place? Did you remove it?
6. Mr. Jaganmohan Reddy extended the Arogyashri scheme to allow free medical treatment to the citizens of Andhra Pradesh in neighboring states like Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, and Telangana. Is this still in effect or not?
Minister Nara Lokesh! We hope you will provide answers to these questions!".
We have to see what Nara Lokesh responds to this.
