Manish Sisodia, Deputy Chief Minister, Delhi on Swasth Bharat, Sampann Bharat telethon

In Delhi, education and health have been our priority sector. We formed the first government in 2015 and since then we started spending 25 per cent of the budget on education and 20 per cent on health. After witnessing the waves of Covid pandemic, I now wonder if we had not spent on health in the last six-seven years in the form of mohalla clinics, medical colleges, what the situation would have been during the pandemic. The money spent on health benefitted us during the pandemic.
