Hyderabad,  Oct  28: The  Government should bear  all the expenses  in the  treatment  of dengue  fever which  is  widespread in  the state   at the  moment. This was  disclosed to the media  by  Telugu Desam  Party chief  Nara Chandrababu  Naidu during his  visit to  Karimnagar district on Wednesday. The TDP chief,  who is visiting  some of the places which are   under  the grip of  dengue  fever in  Karimnagar  district, said  that  it  is the responsibility  of  the  Government  to  take  care  of  those  people who are infected with  dengue    fever and take  up the necessary   measures to keep  the  spread  of disease under control.Chandrababu reached  this  place  by  road from Hyderabad  on Wednesday morning   to  console  the  families  of  those  who lost their dear ones  due  to  dengue  fever recently.

 He also  visited some  of  the patients   suffering  with  dengue  fever in primary health  centres.In Husnabad  division of  Mahabobnagar district  within  a  space of   just  30  days  five  people died  of  dengue fever. Some of those  who  are suffering  with  dengue   fever  have been   shifted  to the  capital city for   further treatment. The  TDP chief  speaking on the  occasion said that the  spread  of  dengue   fever is  due  to  unhygienic conditions  prevailing  in the villages and  the   menace of  mosquitoes. 

He  asked the  village  sarpanches to    direct the  panchayat workers to  maintain hygienic  conditions  in the village.  He  advised the  Government  to  run   free medical camps in these  areas to hold  a check  on the  spread of  dengue  fever.While  so many people  are  dying  due  to dengue fever  the  Government  is sleeping  over the matter  and  is  taking  things  very casually. The  ministers are  more  interested in their  portfolios  than  in  taking  care  of the people,    who  are  suffering     due to  dengue fever, he  lambasted  the  Congress government.
