A BJP MLA in Himachal Pradesh today accused the Virbhadra Singh government of being biased against her constituency.
BJP MLA from Shahpur Sarveen Chaudhary in the assembly said the government not only "denotified" the civil hospital in the city but "downgraded" the Sub-Divisional Magistrate's office, too.
However, State Health Minister Kaul Singh Thakur countered her charge saying, "The government works on merit basis. The previous BJP government had notified the upgradation of a community health center to civil hospital in Shahpur at the fag end of its tenure on September 22, 2012 without sanctioning any posts.
"Rather, some staff was sent from Dharamshala hospital to Shahpur which was not justified. Hence, the present government denotified it on February 7, 2013.
