Kathmandu,
June 20 (RSS): A number of questions have been raised over the initiatives
taken by the Ministry of Health and Population to contain the pandemic
coronavirus. Such concerns are common at a time when the powerful nations are
also failing behind in their steps to prevent and control the coronavirus.
Interacting
with the journalists at the Ministry on Saturday in the presence of secretary
and departmental chiefs, Minister for Health and Population Bhanu Bhakta Dhakal
shared his plans to expand the coronavirus testing scope in the country.
“We
are expanding our capacity to test at least 10,000 individuals every day within
June 29. We are also issuing guidelines from the council of ministers for home
isolation with the consultation of the experts as the number of coronavirus
infected is on the rise,” Dhakal added.
He
also shared that the government was working in a coordinated fashion to win the
battle against the pandemic virus.
Responding
to a query, Minister Dhakal said that there was no irregularity in the
procurement of health materials as the concerned bodies bought the health
supplies with due process.
He
reiterated that he was for fair practice in politics and those alleging
Minister Dhakal of his involvement in the irregularity would have to remorse in
the future.
