I would like to pay my thanks for your efforts," said PM Modi."In 1942, Assam's freedom fighters had given their lives for the respect of our Indian tricolor and its Independence in this region.

In the last 5 years, we've started work on 6 more medical colleges. Till 2016, Assam had only nearly 725 MBBS seats. These new medical colleges would add 1,600 new MBBS doctors every year to Assam after they start functioning," said PM Modi."It is my dream to ensure that every state has at least 1 medical college and 1 technical college that teaches in the mother tongue," he added.The Centre will start a new medical college and technical college in Assamese in the state, soon.

Over 350 hospitals have been empaneled under the scheme. These schemes have saved crores of rupees for the poor," said PM Modi."Over 55 lakh people from Assam have already taken medical help from the Health and Wellness Centres that are being opened in all corners of the state. India has experienced its healthcare sensitivity during the COVID pandemic. Our vaccination drive is being praised the world over," he added.The govt has also decided that in over 600 districts pan-India, integrated labs will be built. People from small towns and rural areas will benefit the most, as they will not have to travel long distances for basic medical tests, said PM Modi."Supporting the efforts of Assam government, we have allotted Rs 1,000 crore for workers in tea plantations. This fund will help facilities that you receive and ease the lives of our tea workers," said PM Modi."Some documents have come out that reveal that some people outside India are trying to malign India's tea and the nation's image associated with it. We must answer everyone who has decided to ruin the image of our tea and everyone who supports such conspiracies. India will not let these conspiracies win," he added.( With inputs from ANI )Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
