Thanks to the health professionals, the people of the medical institute and everyone from every corner of the country. In the battle of Corona, the country has completed the milestone of 100 crores. With the blessings of Baba Vishwanath and the unbroken faith of Ganga’s Aviral Pratap and Kashi, the free vaccine is moving forward for all. Respectfully to all of you. Today, UP has got an opportunity to provide nine new medical colleges. This will benefit crores of sections of society in Purvanchal and entire UP. There will be less rush for big hospitals in other cities. He gave the example of Soratha in Manas. Shiva Shakti resides in Kashi. Knowledge frees Kashi from pain and suffering, so what can be a better place than Kashi for health related planning. Today two big events are taking place on this platform. One Government of India’s work worth more than 64 thousand crores for India is being launched from Kashi. Second Kashi and Purvanchal programs. If you include the program here and here, then a program of 75 thousand crores has been released. Mahadev’s blessings are there in Kashi’s plans. Where there is the blessings of Mahadev, there is success. Due to Mahadev, freedom from sufferings is certain. To give strength to the health infrastructure of the country including UP, preparations should be made to a high level to prevent the epidemic. 64 thousand crores has given an opportunity to start Ayushman Bharat Health Infrastructure Mission to bring self-confidence and self-reliance in our health system. Five thousand crore project has been inaugurated. Road to Ghat, Ganga, Varuna cleaning, bridge parking, BHU project to make life easier during the festive season is going to give energy and confidence to the country for the development festival of Kashi. Today, including Kashi, I congratulate 130 crore people of the country from the land of Kashi.
It is considered the best investment to make the body healthy. After independence, attention was not given to health and health facilities as much as was needed. Those who had a government for a long time kept the health sector deprived of facilities instead of development. There was no hospital in the village, there was no test facility in the block. There was no treatment for serious illness in the district hospital. There was a long wait in the big hospital. The patient and family were worried. Life went on fighting. Sometimes the economic burden on the poor was different. Poor and middle class used to worry because of the lack of health care system. Planning is a distant solution to this shortcoming. Let us be ready to deal with the pandemic. For this, the health system is being prepared. Do not delay the investigation if the disease is caught. The goal is to strengthen critical health care from village to block, district, regional and national. We have the states of the North East, now the focus is on them. This health mission has three major aspects. Under the diagnostic system, the disease detection will be done free of cost with the health and wellness system. If the disease is detected in time, then the chances of getting serious will be less. For his treatment, beds will be prepared for critical care in more than 600 districts. Patients will get the service of referral in 125 districts. Training and capacity building and facilities in the hospital will increase. The surgery network will be ready round the clock.
The second point is the testing network associated with the detection of diseases. Necessary infrastructure will be developed. Integrated system will be developed in 730 districts. This network will be further strengthened. The third aspect is to empower research institutions. There are 80 bio and research labs, these will be further improved. 15 such labs will be activated. Four new virolazo labs will be set up in the country, apart from this a national institute will also be dedicated to the lab. Through this, the eco-system will be developed from treatment to every corner of the country. It was supposed to happen decades ago but there is no need to describe what is happening now. We have been working on a large scale for over seven years. I had launched Gati Shakti Bada Infrastructure for the entire country in Delhi and today this second big one is leaving Kashi with a mission for health. This also creates an environment of employment. If a big hospital is built, then the whole city settles around it. Therefore, this mission is also an economic mission along with health, which is accessible and affordable to all, that is, it is also a holistic mission. Many campaigns have saved the country from getting sick. Ayushman Bharat scheme has provided free treatment to the poor. For those who were in government for years before us, healthcare has been a source of scams and money. Today the government understands the pain of poor dalits, exploited, deprived and backward. Earlier, public money used to go to scams, today it is being done in big projects. Today the country is dealing with the epidemic and infrastructure worth lakhs of crores has been started. The number of staff will also increase. With the increase in seats from the new medical college, the poor will also be able to get a job in the medical field. Doctors in the country are going to meet ten times ahead. The more doctors there are, the easier the availability will be. Work is progressing beyond the lack. What would have been the condition of Kashi if the work had been done in the country or in UP in the past. Kashi was left on his own terms. Hanging wires, road ghats, Ganga jam pollution all keep going on. The heart and mind of Kashi is the same, only the effort is honest. The work done in Kashi was not done in many decades. There was a jam due to the absence of ring road. Waiting for the no-entry opening had become the habit of the people of Banaras. There is no need to bother the people of the city if you have to go anywhere. Ring road is now connected till Ghazipur. There is also a service road attached to it. Due to this, business will get speed up to Prayagraj, Lucknow, Bihar. Without a dedicated infrastructure in the country, the pace of development remains sluggish. Now those coming to the airport will have the facility of carpet makers, Vindhyachal visitors. There will be convenience from the lounge built at the railway station. Work is being done for the cleanliness of Ganga. Today we are experiencing. Sewage treatment plant is working in Ramnagar to stop the dirty water of the houses. 50 thousand population is getting benefit from this. Work is going on for Varuna as well. The neglected Varuna was losing its existence. Today clean water is going into Varuna. Pathway railings are being made on both sides. Facility has been developed for the farmers of Kashi and Purvanchal. Composed of packaging processing and perishable cargo. This will provide convenience to the farmers. Farmers will also get fertilizer from CNG plant. In Kashi, BHU’s facility is being prepared from world best technology to health. Suva friends are coming for studies. Residential facility is under preparation. It is helping to realize Malviya ji’s vision. All the development projects are proving the resolve. For clay artisans and weavers, there has been a 60 percent increase in the khadi and cottage industry and 90 percent in sales. This Diwali we have to take care of them too. Vocal for local is to be kept for clothes and diyas. So everyone’s Diwali will be filled with happiness. If you buy a product which has the smell of sweat and soil, then the poor will get work. We can bring a big change. Best wishes for all festivals.
