Nearly 150 such machines have been supplied throughout the state and some others are expected to be established in the next few months.
“Some important services can reach residents using better technology.

We will ask the department to start training technicians to operate these machines earlier, “said CM Yogi Adityanath.
ATMs aim to bridge the gap of quality health care, especially in rural areas, and help patients see quality doctors even from remote locations.
