West Bengal returns Centre's PMJAY funds -Abantika Ghosh

-The Indian Express

Launched on September 23, PMJAY is the tertiary care arm of the NDA government’s flagship health programme Ayushman Bharat.

On the day Trinamool Congress supremo and West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee released the party’s manifesto with a focus on national issues such as demonetisation, Kashmir and GST, the state government returned the money received from the Centre for the Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (PMJAY), touted as the biggest government-funded health insurance programme in the world.

On Wednesday, the West Bengal government’s Directorate of Health Services released Rs 162.06 crore, about a month after the National Health Authority (NHA) wrote to the state government that if it intends to stay out of the programme, it should forthwith return the money given as central share for implementation of the programme. West Bengal has also stopped sharing data regarding programmes and schemes in the state with the central government.
