TNI Bureau: Hours after the Odisha BJP raised the issue of “Worst COVID-19 Management’ in Ganjam District, which has become the COVID Hotbed of Odisha, the Odisha Government has launched the ‘Mission Ganjam’ by deploying large number of Doctors and Officers.
Apart from 30 Medical Officers (including 8 who have recently joined the Health Department on completion of their PG) from outside the district, 100 more Ayurvedic Medical Officers (AMOs) and Homeopathic Medical Officers (HMOs) have been sent to Ganjam to assist in healthcare operations which are in a big mess over the last few weeks. They will be deployed at the District Headquarters Hospital (DHH).
