7 Mar 2012 in National Assembly:

7 Mar 2012 in National Assembly:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, the situation is quite pathetic, but as a Government, we agreed with them. In fact, we have paid them almost 25 per cent, but they always change the goal posts and are now saying that the hospitals do not have equipment.
