Goencho Avaaz assures free universal healthcare model

VASCO

The Goencho Avaaz Party (GAP) has assured to offer people in the State the hope of a brighter and safer future with its healthcare and law and order policies.

Affirming that its model would provide the best quality of life to Goans from all segments of society, GAP State Convenor Captain Viriato Fernandes told reporters at a press conference that universal healthcare is every Goan’s birthright.

“We have formulated a new healthcare model ‘Goenchi Bhalayki Niti’ to offer free and accessible healthcare for people to easily avail of medical facilities and treatment.”

“We will also upgrade existing government health centres to provide state-of-art facilities. In addition, we will roll out doorstep delivery of basic healthcare in villages for the aged and elderly.”

“Intern doctors attached to various PHCs will pay monthly visits to homes of the elderly for basic health check-ups. We will set up diabetes prevention and mental health centres in both districts,” said Capt Fernandes.

He said the GAP’s immediate priority would be to table the Police Reform Bill that will insulate the police force from political interference to allow them to freely perform their duties.

“The second bill that we will get passed in the Assembly will be a Bill on Women and Child safety aimed at preventing crime against them, whilst expediting justice to victims.”

“We will leverage technology with the help of an app or digital service on phones of women to alert the nearest police station in case of an emergency,” Capt Fernandes added.
