Health and Family Welfare Minister Sardar Md. Sakhawat Hossain said the health system had been collapsing under the previous government because of widespread irregularities, corruption and looting of funds. He made the remarks on Saturday after an unannounced inspection of the 50-bed উপজেলা Health Complex in Morelganj, Bagerhat, at 11 a.m. He said the current government was working to improve care quality and ensure transparency and accountability.
During the visit, the minister toured several hospital departments and expressed anger after observing shortcomings. He said poor people do not receive medicines while medicines worth lakhs of taka had expired at the hospital. Government medicines were also found scattered in bathrooms, according to the report. At the site, he issued necessary instructions to the civil surgeon, DDC and other relevant officials over the irregularities.
The minister said the 50-bed hospital had been upgraded to 101 beds to bring health services closer to people, and urgent measures would be taken to improve services. He said tender-related activities for the 101-bed Morelganj health complex would begin within a few days. He also visited a nearby private clinic. District and local administration officials, police, health officials and the local health and family planning officer attended the inspection.
