India’s Vice President M Venkaiah Naidu has urged the private sector to partner with the government to bring the latest healthcare diagnostic and treatment facilities to the rural areas at an affordable cost.

Speaking at the inauguration of Amara Multispecialty Hospital in Tirupati, Andhra Pradesh, Naidu asserted that there is an urgent need to bridge this divide so that people in rural areas also get access to modern and state-of-the-art healthcare in their own villages.

Stressing the importance of providing quality healthcare to every individual, the Vice President said, “No one in our villages should suffer because of lack of medical facilities.”

Praising the government for allocating a sum of Rs. 2,23,846 crore to health in the recent budget, he said, “I am certain that this move will give a powerful boost to creating healthcare infrastructure in our country and most importantly, cut the out-of-pocket expenditure on health.”

Praising healthcare workers for their contribution during the pandemic, he emphasized that the nation will always remain grateful to the medical fraternity, including doctors, para-medical staff, health, sanitary and ASHA workers for their selfless service and sacrifices during one of the most challenging periods.
