New Delhi: PM Narendra Modi on Friday launches Ayushman Bharat Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (AB-PMJAY) SEHAT scheme for the residents of Jammu & Kashmir, via video conferencing. This will benefit 21 lakh eligible people on the basis of Socio-Economic and Caste Census (SECC) 2011, who will be able to avail free treatment up to Rs 5 lakh medical expense.
Some political forces keep lecturing on democracy but see their duplicity & shallowness. The party that rules in Puducherry hasn’t conducted local body elections despite SC’s order, whereas J&K held Panchayat level polls within one year after becoming an UT. – PM
PM Modi also interacted with Ramesh Lal, a cancer patient from Jammu, who is a beneficiary of Centre’s Ayushman Bharat Yojana.
