UP: This is why PM Modi appreciated 'Banaras Model' against Covid crisis

PM Modi praised the speed with which the number of oxygen and ICU beds have been increased in such a short time in Banaras and the way the Pandit Rajan Mishra Covid Hospital has been activated at such a short notice.

He also expressed happiness that the Integrated Covid command system in Varanasi worked very well and said Varanasi's example inspires the world.

The Prime Minister gave the example of substantial control of encephalitis cases in children in the Purvanchal region due to active efforts of the UP government and urged the officials and doctors to work with the same sensitivity and vigilance.
