Tapas Roy, Secretary of Social Welfare and Social Education, said, “We provide a foster pension of Rs 4000 per month to the children who are not kept with family. We provide this up to 18 years of age or a maximum of 3 years. We also have financial assistance for medical patients of any age who come to Mukhya Mantri Samipeshu. We also provide financial assistance to children with poor financial backgrounds.”
Dr Sankar Chakraborty, MS, AGMC and GBP Hospital, said, ” Mukhya Mantri Samipeshu has been started almost 1-1.5 years ago, in which people can directly meet with our CM, Dr Manik Saha and discuss their problems to get relief. In Mukhya Mantri Samipeshu, most of the applications are for medical assistance from the CM.”
Dr Shiramani Debbarma, MS, Atal Bihari Vajpayee Regional Cancer Institute, said, “Patients from far and wide come to Mukhya Mantri Samipeshu and receive benefits. We all sit together with the chief minister and listen to everyone’s problems. We solve the problems of everyone who comes here and provide help. The Chief Minister attends Samipeshu once a week, and it has been observed that about 6-7 cancer patients come and receive benefits each time.
Talking to the mother of a beneficiary named Rachana Saha, she said, “My daughter has been admitted to the cancer hospital for a long time, so I went to the Chief Minister and requested that to improve my daughter’s chemotherapy treatment. My financial condition is not good, so I applied to get the chemotherapy on time. The medical superintendent assured me that everything will be facilitated and that the allowance I have deposited will be provided at the right time. The Chief Minister has assured me that everything will be done properly.”
Another beneficiary of the MMS programme, Prasenjit Das, said, “I am physically eighty per cent handicapped and suffer from elephantiasis lymphedema. I spoke to the Chief Minister at the Chief Minister Samipeshu event, and he assured me that he would arrange for my treatment at AIIMS hospital in Delhi free of charge, using his own funds. I am very thankful to our Chief Minister, who has taken full responsibility for my operation.” (ANI)
