"Uttar Pradesh lacks behind on the scale of development and political leadership. Health sector also got badly affected because of this. There is bad situation in urban areas so what one can expect in the rural areas. Attempts are being made to improve the situation," he said.
"In Uttar Pradesh, we need efficient doctors and for that we need good institutions. There is not a single day when media does not expose the loopholes of the medical institutions. I know everything published in newspaper are not true but some could be true," he added.
