Stoppage of ambulances: HC stays TS Govt Circular

While Telangana Chief Minister KCR and Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy maintained a cordial relationship with each other after Jagan became the CM of AP, the situations have begun to become more and more strained over the past few months.

AP CM’s legal advisor, Sajjala Ramakrishna Reddy, has said that they will be going to the court and fighting a legal battle against the orders passed by the Telangana government, which are stopping the entry of coronavirus patients from entering Telangana. All of these patients are travelling to Hyderabad in an attempt to get treated for coronavirus, but the Police are stopping them at the borders of Telangana, following the Telangana government’s orders. This is resulting in the suffering of a lot of patients.

Sajjala said that it is only the Telangana government that is having a problem with patients coming in for treatment, while the governments of Karnataka and Tamil Nadu continue to have no problem with people going to Bangalore and Chennai for treatment. He blamed the way the states of AP and Telangana were reorganised, with all those places without proper infrastructure being given to AP and those with better infrastructure being given to Telangana.

Sajjala also blamed ex-CM of AP, Chandrababu Naidu, for not constructing enough multispecialty hospitals in the state during his regime, and said that the state wouldn’t be suffering to this extent, if Chandrababu constructed enough hospitals.

On the other hand, the Telangana High Court gave stay orders on the government’s orders to stop any ambulances entering Telangana from Andhra Pradesh. The HC said that the government has no right to change the constitution and that there was no order passed in any other state of the country, blocking people from entering other states for treatment. The HC also said that the government had no right to violate the National Highway Act either. This stay order will now let ambulances from AP enter Telangana, without further issues.
