I have heard of Ambulance Services being outsourced abroad.
I was shocked to find an Advertisement extending the last Date for the receipt of Tender for ‘Emergency Response Service,108 Ambulance Service project’!

Chief Minister and MLAs?
Obvious reason is Percentage!
We may await expect CAG report shortly!
