JAMMU, Feb 6: An Ayushman Bharat Yojana camp was organised at Royal Nest Chandan in Trikuta Nagar Extension by Councillor Ajay Gupta wherein dozens of residents registered themselves under the central sponsored scheme, here today.
The camp was held under the supervision of Ashwani Kumar, president of Royal Nest Chandan Society in which chairman Dr Gazi, Advisor Vinay Handoo, Rakesh Raina and Ravi Verma were also present.
Ashwani Kumar said that the Ayushman Bharat is a scheme of the Government of India to provide free access to healthcare for people of the country. He said that people can use the program to access their own primary care services from a family doctor. “Everyone needs additional care and Ayushman Bharat provides free secondary health care for those in need of specialist treatment and tertiary healthcare for those requiring hospitalization,” he said.
Kumar said that more such camps will be organised in the Society in near future for the welfare of residents.
