Dhamtari, March 9 (HS). State Health Mitanin Sangh is continuing its protest demanding inclusion of Mitanins in the National Health Mission and 50 percent increase in incentive amount and compensation. Three days of protest have been completed.
The rioters raised anti-government slogans from the protest platform Gandhi Maidan. Mitanins, who arrived from all the blocks of Dhamtari district, are protesting under the banner of State Health Mitanin Sangh. Officials said that they have two-point demands. In which Mitanin, Mitanin Trainer, Block Coordinator, Swasthya Panchayat Coordinator, Area Coordinator, Helpdesk Facilitator should be added to the National Health Mission. Apart from this, incentive amount and compensation should be increased by 50 percent. Told that this officer has been providing health services for 21 years. But they have been deprived of this till now.
Till now it is being operated through agencies. Despite having 21 years of on-the-ground experience, work is being taken with very little incentive amount and compensation base. This amount is too little for the family's livelihood. The future ahead appears in darkness. The Chief Minister has been requested to link all these posts to NHM on the basis of experience. During this, President Anita Dhruv, Secretary Sevika Patel, Vice President Kalindri Sahu, Neeta Sahu, Omeshwari Sahu from urban area, Lakshmi Dewangan, Sangeeta Sahu, Shayra Khan, Lakshmi Yadav, Kunti Dhruv, rural MT Savitri Sahu, Janaki Sahu, Rajeshwari Sahu, Shivratri.
