Srinagar/IBNS: A resident of Baramulla, Zahoor Ahmad Mir, has expressed gratitude to Lieutenant Governor, Manoj Sinha, for acknowledging his suggestion on the strengthening of 'Jan AushadiKendras' (JAK) in Jammu and Kashmir.

While mentioning the name of Zahoor Ahmad in the fifth episode of the ‘AwaamkiAwaaz’ radio talk show, aired on August 15, the Lieutenant Governor,  Sinha praised Zahoor for this suggestion.

The Lieutenant Governor also welcomed various other suggestions received for improving the health sector vis-a-vis; strengthening the 'Jan AushadhiKendras',  inventory management, supply chain and availability of doctor’s prescribed medicine.

He said that the health department has been directed to take up the suggestions meticulously for suitable action and informed that a total of 103 JAK has been established across 20 districts of the UT to provide medicines up to 50 per cent less than the market rates.

Observing that J&K today is making significant strides in ensuring the development and prosperity of its people, the Lieutenant Governor said, “It is now our collective responsibility to fill that gap through concrete measures on every front for the equitable development of every section in J&K. Though the work has begun, much more is yet to be done. It is the only reason, I earnestly wait for the third Sunday of every month so that the efforts of the UT Government could be taken ahead working on the ideas and suggestions I receive”.

Expressing his gratitude to Lieutenant Governor, Zahoor Ahmad said," I am  indebted to Lieutenant Governor for raising the issue of shortage of supplies in  'Pradhan Mantri Bhartiya Janaushadhi Kendra; across Kashmir in weekly Awaam Ki  Awaz programme."
