The Comptroller and Auditor General of India (CAG) report on Gujarat's health services, tabled in the Assembly on Friday, exposes glaring infrastructural gaps and an alarming shortage of doctors, specialists, and nursing faculty.
The "Public Health Infrastructure and Management of Health Services 2024" noted that despite hiring 9,983 healthcare workers between 2016 and 2022, the shortage of doctors stood at 23%, nurses at 6%, and paramedics at 23% as of March 2022.

Modi’s “Garv Se Kaho Yeh Swadeshi Hai” is a proud roar of a tiger economy that is experiencing the second coming of its first leadership position in the global comity of nations.
