AGARTALA, Oct 29 (TIWN): The constitutional value of "Right to Life" is still ambiguous in the Free Nation as over 30% of people die without treatment in India as per report.

In a direct violation of "Right to Life", Tripura's Health Dept under Chief Minister Biplab Deb has stopped free medicine supplies for the Dialysis patients. Such brutal decisions including snatching of Free Treatment in GB hospital started to take since the then Health Minister Sudip Roy Barman was removed from Health Ministry and CM Biplab Deb took the charge. The patients party came in GB hospital today, have said that the PM Yojna although written in the notice board but the PM Yojna is not helping the people in reality.

They said, before 8 months also everything was free but now they are forced to purchase medicines per dialysis amidst they need to come twice a week from far away to get dialysis.

On the other side, in private hospitals, the charges of dialysis is too costly which is unbearable for patient parties who are having monthly incomes less than a lakh, as dialysis needs twice or thrice in a week for many kidney patients.
