Arvind Kejriwal has announced that the state government and some private hospitals will be reserved for the residents of the national capital only. Also, the Delhi borders would be opened from tomorrow.

The Delhi government and few private hospitals in the city will be reserved for the residents of the national capital. Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal announced on Sunday that the Central government hospitals will remain open for all.

The announcement has come amid the controversy of Delhi hospitals turning away coronavirus patients, claiming the non-availability of beds while the app launched by the Arvind Kejriwal government, to check the availability of beds, suggests otherwise.

While all the Delhi government hospitals would be reserved for the residents of the national capital, only some private hospitals, except those where special surgeries like neurosurgery are performed, would be reserved for them, Arvind Kejriwal said.

He said if people from other cities come to Delhi for specific surgeries, they will be provided treatment at private hospitals.

“Central government hospitals will be open for people from across the country. We do not have any jurisdiction over central hospitals,” Arvind Kejriwal said.
