New Delhi: Against backdrop of reports that MCD was under-reporting cases of dengue, Delhi government today directed the civic agency to furnish figures of the affected patients reported by various hospitals, including private ones.
The direction was issued by Health Minister A K Walia at a meeting called to discuss ways and means to contain cases of dengue in the city.
A senior health department official said government has directed all hospitals in the city to provide the exact figure of dengue-affected people to the government.
As per the latest MCD figure, 526 people have been afflicted by the disease so far.
MCD has been particularly told to intensify the fogging operations across the city, said an official who attended the meeting.
MCD is the nodal agency to keep a count on number of dengue cases.
