As PM Modi rolls out Ayushman Bharat, remember when P P Bajpai said insurance pushes people to die

Op India  

Prime Minister Narendra Modi formally launched Ayushman Bharat, now aptly renamed the Pradhan Mantri Jan Aarogya Yojana at a massive gathering in Ranchi yesterday. Ayushman Bharat, which covers 500 million people, could well turn out to be Prime Minister Modi’s greatest legacy. They get so carried away in their hatred for all things connected to Modi that they end up seeing strange visions of insurance being something that pushes people towards death! I wonder what Punya Prasun Bajpai is thinking today, with Ayushman Bharat being rolled out for 500 million people.
