The Congress government in Rajasthan is disrupting the execution of the Bhamashah health insurance scheme, introduced by the previous BJP regime, the saffron party claimed Saturday.
Bhamashah is a direct benefit transfer scheme under which health insurance and medical treatment facilities are provided to the beneficiaries.
The Rajasthan unit of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) alleged that the beneficiaries were not getting advantages due to the negligence of the Ashok Gehlot government.

"Poor people are facing difficulties due to the present government," he added.
