He said that the hearing on the matter is likely to continue on Thursday, and he expects a meaningful decision to emerge soon.
He expressed hope that with the efforts of the BJP MPs, the Centre’s Ayushman Bharat Scheme will soon be implemented in the national capital.
Sachdeva said that it is notable that despite an announcement made by a Delhi minister in the Assembly earlier, the state government has not implemented the central health scheme.
He further said that the BJP MPs had clearly stated in their 2024 election manifesto that they would work towards implementing the Ayushman Bharat Scheme in Delhi.
The Delhi BJP chief informed that the party MPs had also resolved to approach the courts if the Delhi government resisted implementing the scheme.
As per the BJP leader, saffron party’s parliamentarians, living up to their promise, filed the petition, while MP Bansuri Swaraj, who is also a lawyer, represented the case.
