The Maharashtra government is setting up a ‘war room’ to coordinate various health schemes, prevent duplication of benefits and ensure effective execution of all health-related programmes under one roof, officials said on Monday. The facility will function under the supervision of the Chief Minister’s Relief Fund and the Charitable Hospitals Assistance Cell.
“This initiative will ensure that every citizen receives benefits according to eligibility and that financial assistance reaches genuine beneficiaries,” said Rameshwar Naik, head of the Chief Minister’s Relief Fund and Charitable Hospitals Assistance Cell. Former IAS officer and Maharashtra Institution for Transformation (MITRA) CEO Praveen Pardeshi has been appointed to head the initiative, while the additional chief secretaries, principal secretaries, and secretaries of various departments will be its members, an official release said.
