Haryana Chief Minister, Sh. Manohar Lal said that Nirogi Haryana Yojana, launched to fulfill the resolve to provide the best health services to the poor and needy citizens,\u00a0 is proving to be highly effective.\u00a0So far, a health check-up of 13.70 lakh citizens has been done under this scheme.\u00a0 The scheme aims to detect diseases at the earliest to lessen the burden of treatment costs on the patient’s family, he added.\u00a0The Chief Minister was interacting directly with the beneficiaries of Nirogi Haryana Yojana through audio conferencing under CM’s Jan Samvad programme on the occasion of International Doctors’ Day here today.\u00a0During the audio conference, the beneficiaries expressed their gratitude towards the Chief Minister and said that by running such a scheme, the Haryana government has ensured benefits to the needy. Earlier, any kind of tests were only done when there was pain or any other type of problem in the body. There is no greater advantage to us than having tests done free of cost for people like us thanks to such visionary programme.\u00a0Sh. Manohar Lal said that our government is committed to provide high quality health services to the citizens of the state with the aim of “Sarve Bhavantu Sukhinah Sarve Santu Niramaya”. Nirogi Haryana Yojana is also a part of Antyodaya Abhiyan. Apart from improving the economic, social and educational status of the poor, ensuring their good health is also one of our prime goals. With this visionary approach the Nirogi Haryana Yojana was launched in the state by President,\u00a0 Smt. Droupadi Murmu, on the occasion of International Gita Mahotsav (November 29, 2022).\u00a0\u00a0The Chief Minister said that the objective of Nirogi Haryana Yojana is to conduct a complete health check-up of the entire population of the state at least once in two years. In its first phase, the health of 30.60 lakh Antyodaya families with annual income up to Rs. 1. 80 lakh is being examined. There are a total of 1 crore 21 lakh 54 thousand members in these families. A campaign is being conducted to check their health status.\u00a0\u00a0Sh. Manohar Lal said that so far 2.13 lakh people have been found suffering from one or the other disease during the health check-up being done under the scheme. Out of these, about 55 thousand people have been found suffering from Anaemia. Among them, the number of women is more. I request sisters and daughters to get their health checked from time to time and take iron pills or other medicines prescribed by the doctor on time, CM added.\u00a0Similarly, many patients with blood pressure are also being found. It was found that more than 35 thousand people were found suffering from blood pressure abnormalities. Apart from this, 24,800 people are diagnosed with diabetes.\u00a0\u00a0Symptoms of malnutrition were found in 3000 children. T.B. Patients up to 1,257 and cancer have been found in the investigation. 23,500 people were also referred to hospitals for treatment and most of them have been treated or are undergoing treatment.\u00a0\u00a0The Chief Minister said that the facility of annual health check-up on more than 25 parameters is being made available free of cost under Nirogi Haryana Yojana. Presently these tests are being done at 458 places. But the target is very huge, so cooperation of the private sector will also have to be taken in this task. Planning is also being done for this.\u00a0\u00a0Sh. Manohar Lal appealed to the citizens to include yoga or exercise in their daily routine. Also pay attention to healthy eating. He said that Ayurveda is a very old method of keeping the body healthy. He added that this is the reason why the government has opened Yogashalas\/Vyayamshalas in the villages of the state.\u00a0CM said, Prime Minister Sh. Narendra Modi launched the\u00a0 Pradhan Mantri Janarogya Ayushman Bharat Yojana\u00a0 for the treatment of families with low incomes after seeing the suffering of the deprived who are unable to get treatment because of a lack of resources. He said that the Chirayu scheme aimed at expanding the Ayushman Bharat health insurance scheme launched by the central government so that the maximum number of beneficiaries could be included in the scheme. In this, families with annual income up to Rs. 1. 80 lakhs are getting health cover of Rs. 5 lakhs annually. Now families with annual income up to Rs. 3 lakhs will also be included in this. About 29 lakh families of the state are being covered under this scheme. He said that about 1.11 crore people in the state are eligible for Ayushman Bharat-Chirayu Yojana. About 80 lakh people will be covered in this scheme.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
