I was shocked to read a recent news about BMC plans to start charging for medical services being offered at its Hospitals. It seems that Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC), which runs most public hospitals in the city is now on money minting spree and has forgotten its social responsibility.It's the right of every citizen to avail free medical services at Government Hospitals. Instead of increasing the number of hospitals and medical facilities in Mumbai over decades. BMC's New Year resolution seems to hit the poor below the belt.
Why are we paying taxes on every front?
Is it to spend our hard earned money on providing luxuries and amenities to our elected representatives and filling the coffers of the bureaucrats.
If i'm not wrong that our taxes are meant to provide and protect our brethren who are on the lower side of the economic ladder.
We need to bridge the gap between the haves and have nots. Our tax contribution is for the growth of an inclusive India.
It's time Mumbaikar stand against such proposals and block the unholy intentions of such authorities.
