In society, doctors come after God. Through providing medical services, doctors have the opportunity to go to people. This is the greatness of this profession, said Tripura Chief Minister Dr Manik Saha on the occasion of the 37th annual conference of the Agartala Obstetrics and Gynecology Society at Chandramahal in Agartala on Saturday.
Inaugurating the conference, the Chief Minister said that obstetricians and gynecologists are working to provide health services. The current state government has also taken various steps to provide quality health services to the people. Dr Manik Saha said that the central government and the state government, under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, have taken various initiatives to provide quality health services to the people.
Dr Saha said the people of Tripura could never have imagined that there would be a dental college in the state. Under the initiative of this government, a modern dental college has now been started in the state.
Another 100 primary health centers will be set up to provide quality health services to the peripheral areas of the state. For this, provision of funds has been made in the budget of the current financial year, Dr Saha said.
He said that doctors should always be sincere in providing medical services. The current government believes in action, not just words. The state government is working for the welfare of every person in the society.
Tripura is now moving forward in the direction of development at the same pace as the country. The Chief Minister wished the Agartala Obstetrics and Gynecology Society's annual conference a success.
