Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, who currently is in the Enforcement Directorate's (ED) custody till March 28 in the Delhi excise policy case, has issued a second set of directions regarding the availability of medicines and tests to people at all government hospitals and Mohalla Clinics, Health Minister Saurabh Bharadwaj said on Tuesday.

Kejriwal's intervention came after receiving information about problems in laboratory tests available at Mohalla Clinics. However, Bharadwaj assured the health department will act immediately to address the issues.

The health minister further added that the latest directions from the chief minister showed that despite being in custody, he always thinks about the wellbeing of the people of Delhi.

However, taking a dig at the Delhi CM, BJP leader Manjinder Singh Sirsa said, "A chief minister cannot issue any direction from the jail. This is a drama. I have complained about this to the L-G, demanding strict action against them."
