'The delegates were happy to note that Mohalla Clinics were allowing underprivileged section of the society to seek treatment for simple but nagging ailments like a skin rash or a sore throat which earlier they would continue to suffer to save money,' it said.
'At Delhi Govt night shelter, the delegates were informed how homeless population of the city was brought to shelters and provided basic amenities in a safe, comfortable place. They were happy to note that shelter was equipped with water coolers, clean mattress, pillows and even a TV,' it added.
