'Over 1,200 dead as heatwave intensifies (news)...Health Minsiter in Geneva' by K.J.S.Chatrath

Over 1,200 dead as heatwave intensifies (news)http://www.tribuneindia.com/news/nation/over-1-200-dead-as-heatwave-intensifies/86338.html

Here is a verbatim extract from this news item:

“...This year, the heatwave condition is unprecedented and there has been a large number of deaths. The Health Ministry is likely to come up with an advisory soon for all the states and common people,” a senior Health Ministry official said.

Health Minister JP Nadda who is presently attending the World Health Assembly (WHA) in Geneva also spoke over phone to the Union Health Secretary today and took stock of the situation especially in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana states.

“He also directed the Secretary to talk to respective state Secretaries of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana and provide them with all help and medical aid, if there is a need,” the senior official said..."


Am I criticizing the Hon'ble Minister for being in Geneva?

No, Sir, he is in Geneva attending important World Health Assembly Meeting.

I am only envying him!
