On the occasion of the World Tuberculosis (TB) Day, in a series of tweets, Prime Minister Narendra Modi reaffirmed his government’s commitment towards making India TB-free by 2025, five years before the global target of 2030.

“This would greatly benefit the poor. Correct and complete treatment is the key to winning the battle against TB. I also salute the people and organisations strengthening the TB-free movement,” the PM wrote.

“Centre’s efforts such as TB Free India campaign and Ayushman Bharat are improving health standards and providing assistance to TB patients,” he added.

Hailing more praises for the success for the Ayushman Bharat Scheme, the PMO office tweeted, “Ayushman Bharat is fast becoming a force to reckon with in Indian healthcare, 15 lakh patients availed free of cost treatment in less than 170 days ensuring Rs 5,000 crore worth savings to their families!”
