Mann said on their part these leaders got to get their treatment done from foreign shores but the common people were left in lurch without quality treatment.

He said these leaders just treated the people as mere vote banks and never bothered about the life and health of people.

The Chief Minister said that concerted efforts of the government Punjab is ushering a new era of health revolution. He said that quality cancer treatment is now available due to which the people no longer have to visit the other states for treatment.
