In a reply in the Rajya Sabha, the Center said that bihar is far behind in the calculations of NMC in the matter

of medical seats. bihar is second from the bottom in the list. Below bihar is meghalaya in North-East. The

condition of health care is bad in bihar as well as Uttar Pradesh. The infant mortality rate in Uttar Pradesh is 38.

That means 38 out of 1000 children die as soon as they are born. UP is also far behind in preventing maternal

mortality. Even in terms of MBBS seats, Uttar Pradesh is almost at par with Bihar. According to NMC ratio,

there should be around 26 thousand MBBS seats in UP, which is around 9 thousand.

The population in Uttar Pradesh is 26 crores. The number of PHC centers in the state is around 2800. Many of

these are also not operating. Recently, SP supremo akhilesh yadav had said that treatment is not being


provided in big hospitals of the state, leave alone PHC. Even during Corona, hospitals in Uttar Pradesh made

headlines like Bihar. The condition of government hospitals is so bad that even doctors are not ready to work

here. In the year 2022, the government had issued recruitment for 1039 posts, out of which 230 doctors did not

join. The government had to publish advertisement again to fill these posts.
