Jharkhand’s healthcare landscape is set for transformation with the Union Government’s green light for a new Ayurvedic Medical College and Hospital. Health Minister Irfan Ansari shared the breakthrough after engaging with Union State Minister Pratap Rao Jadhav in the national capital.
For years, the state missed out on specialized Ayurvedic education. Now, plans are afoot for one government and one private college-hospital duo, fulfilling a long-standing gap. Ansari’s Thursday meeting also tackled broader health reforms, securing nods for multiple initiatives.
Imagine high-tech labs with Japanese precision in every medical college and Ranchi’s main hospital. These will revolutionize testing, keeping advanced diagnostics local and affordable. No more cross-state treks for routine yet critical checks.
MBBS capacity is surging too—Dhanbad’s SNMCH and Jamshedpur’s MGM are gearing up to triple seats from 100 to 250, with PG expansions following expert evaluations. District-wide Wellness Health Centres under a 60:40 funding split promise accessible care everywhere.
The Abua scheme’s central backing was kickstarted, while the minister lauded Jharkhand’s innovative health approaches. With officials like Ajay Kumar present, this collaboration underscores a commitment to robust public health. Jharkhand is poised to lead in holistic healing and modern medicine fusion.
