Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal launched on Thursday bike-ambulance services, equipped with GPS device, for east Delhi on a pilot basis, saying it would provide quick pre-hospital response in congested areas.
Talking to reporters after flagging off the fleet of 16 bike ambulances (First Responder Vehicles) outside the Delhi Secretariat here, Kejriwal said it was a big step taken by the Aam Aadmi Party government for the people.
The chief minister said it was difficult for four-wheeler ambulances to enter narrow lanes.
"If there's a medical emergency in narrow bylanes, bike ambulance can go there and immediately provide its service to patients."
