The bike ambulance project in east Delhi has helped "save 700 lives" since its launch in February and plans are afoot to expand the service across the national capital, the Delhi government said on Friday.

In a statement, the AAP government said the project has received "overwhelmingly positive response" from residents.

Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal tweeted, "I am happy that patients living in narrow bylanes of Delhi are also getting health facilities through bike ambulances. A plan is underway to expand this service to entire Delhi."
