Prime Minister Narendra Modi praised India’s efforts in combating tuberculosis (TB) today, highlighting the significant progress made through initiatives such as the Nikshay Mitras program and shorter, more effective treatments. These measures, he noted, have not only reduced TB incidence but also improved recovery rates, reinforcing India’s global leadership in the fight against TB.
In response to a post by Union Health Minister J.P. Nadda on X (formerly Twitter), Modi acknowledged the transformative impact of India’s TB elimination efforts. He specifically emphasized the importance of nutritional support provided through the Nikshay Poshan Yojana, which has played a key role in enhancing recovery for TB patients.
The Prime Minister’s statement underscores the country’s commitment to eradicating TB and improving healthcare outcomes, marking a significant milestone in India’s fight against infectious diseases.
