As many as 105 patients of dengue and viral fever were admitted on Sunday to the government medical college in Firozabad

Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath said on Monday that some officials of the health and urban development departments have been found lax in discharging their duties in the Firozabad district where dengue and viral fever claimed over 50 lives, according to an official statement. The Chief Minister also ordered strict action against such officials.

The Chief Minister held a meeting and directed that the teams of specialists from Sanjay Gandhi Post Graduate Institute of Medical Sciences (SGPGI), Ram Manohar Lohia Hospital, and King George's Medical University in Lucknow be sent to Firozabad, Agra, and Mathura. The teams will guide local doctors and will oversee the treatment of patients there.

Dengue and viral fever have claimed 51 lives in Firozabad

As many as 105 patients of dengue and viral fever were admitted on Sunday to the government medical college in Firozabad, where the diseases have claimed 51 lives so far. "In Firozabad, some officers of health and urban development departments were found lax in discharging their duties.
