Strong Commitment to Healthcare Expansion

He shared that healthcare expansion remains a top priority for his government. In the past 20 months, five new medical colleges have been approved, and work is underway on a 5,000-bed Medicity at Nava Raipur.

Supportive Healthcare Schemes for All

The Chief Minister underlined the importance of affordable treatment, noting how lifestyle-related diseases are growing. He highlighted the Ayushman Bharat scheme providing free treatment up to Rs. 5 lakh and said that under the Vay Vandana Yojana, this benefit is now extended to all patients above 70 years of age.

Robotic Surgery to Strengthen Modern Medicine

Health and Family Welfare Minister Mr. Shyam Bihari Jaiswal noted that robotic surgery is a crucial step in enhancing the capacity and quality of healthcare. He revealed that Mekahara Hospital in Raipur will also soon be equipped with robotic surgery facilities.

Recognition for Public Participation

The robotic system has been named ‘Dev Hast’ following a public competition. Ms. Jyotsna Kiradu, the winner of the naming contest, was awarded Rs. 5,000 by the Chief Minister. The ceremony was attended by Lt. Gen. (Retd.) Dr. Ashok Jindal, Director and CEO of AIIMS Raipur, Dr. Devjyoti Mohanty, medical students, and several dignitaries.
