The opposition today shouted slogans during question hour in connection with the implementation of health insurance scheme. Minister Paloli Mohammed Kutty informed that they do not intend to implement it under the local self governing department alone.

Paloli said the UDF were not able to implement it as they did not follow the directive of the central government to apply it under the public sector undertakings.

If the consumers' demand, the money collected for the scheme during the UDF tenure will be returned back, the minister said.

Meantime, Chandy said the government is trying to implement a scheme not much beneficial to the people.
