J&K: Free medicine in govt hospitals from June 1
The Jammu and Kashmir government will provide free medicines in all state-run hospitals from June 1, state Health Minister Bali Bhagat said on Sunday. This has been a long-pending demand of the people, he further said. The government will also establish a 100-bed hospital in Kishtwar district "which remains cut-off frequently during the winter season due to snowfall", Bhagat said.
