Union Health Minister J P Nadda on Thursday called for a stronger focus on state hospitals, especially at the grassroots level, including sub-health centres to reduce pressure on premier institutions in Delhi and other major cities.
He chaired a ‘Kayakalp Manthan’ with central government hospitals, NGOs and senior officials of the Union Health Ministry to boost ‘jan bhagidari’ (public participation) for achieving better health outcomes here on Thursday.
He highlighted the transformative journey of the Kayakalp Scheme, launched 10 years ago, to promote cleanliness, hygiene, and infection control practices in public healthcare facilities across India.
