Bhopal: Health Offices At Different Places Cause Trouble To People

Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh): Different locations of health department’s offices in Bhopal are a real challenge for people who have to move from one locality to another to meet officials to solve their problems. People are required to stand in queue to get passes at different offices to meet concerning authority, which is time consuming.

For instance, National Health Mission (NHM) office is located at Patrakar Colony (Link Road no-3) while health department has now shifted to JP Hospital premises after Satpura Bhavan caught fire. Similarly, office of secretaries and principal secretary are in Vallabh Bhavan.

Though medical education department has merged with health department, the latter is separately located. The office of Madhya Pradesh Public Health Services Corporation Limited (MPPHSCL) is located in Arera Hills.
