MP Shocker: Order Asks Health Workers To Bring Men For Sterilisation Or Face Suspension
Bhopal: The Congress government in Madhya Pradesh has ordered health workers in the state to bring atleast one man for sterilisation or face a penalty.
"Officials in the district should identify workers with zero work output and apply the 'no work, no pay' principle if, they have failed to get one male person for sterilisation in the 2019-20 period," stated the order in Hindi, signed by National Health Mission (NHM), Madhya Pradesh, Mission Co-ordinator, Chavi Bharadwaj.
The diktat has stark similarity with the sterilisation drive forced on people during the national emergency in 1975 under the Indira Gandhi-led Congress government.
