A 'doctor helpline', comprising of a panel of medical practitioners, was launched by the Delhi BJP on Tuesday to help people get expert advise on queries related to COVID-19.

Launching the helpline through Facebook Live, Delhi BJP chief Manoj Tiwari said over 30 doctors will be available for any consultation or queries related to COVID-19 over phone.

The party also released phone numbers of the doctors in the panel. Two doctors for each of 14 BJP district units have been included in the panel.

For bigger districts like northwest Delhi, Keshavpuram and Outer Delhi, more than two doctors will answer queries of the people, Tiwari said.
