Hence, the State government has extended financial help of Rs 500 crore to provide immediate medical treatment to these people from the Chief Minister’s Relief Fund, said Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis.

Speaking further Fadnavis said the poor cannot afford costly medical treatment and medicines. With a view to provide medical treatment to the poor, the State government has launched Mahatma Fule Jan Arogya Yojana, which has proved as a safety cover to this people. Till date, the government has extended financial help of Rs 40 crore in the district and Rs 500 crore across the State through this scheme, Fadnavis informed.
