Mysuru: BJP workers staged a protest condemning the decision to close Pradhan Mantri Janaushadhi Kendra, which was functioning at K.R. Hospital premises in Mysuru yesterday.
The protesters, under the leadership of K.R. MLA T.S. Srivatsa, who held placards and raised slogans against the State Government, alleged that the Janaushadhi Kendra that was opened by the Central Government at K.R. Hospital premises, was ordered to be closed only to help private druggists mafia. The patients earlier had access to medicines at affordable rate, but now the State Government has deliberately ordered for the closure of Janaushadhi Kendra.
