Gautam Buddha Nagar: Rising as a Hub for Health Tourism, Says CM
The Chief Minister emphasized the critical role that quality education and healthcare play in the development of a civilized society. He acknowledged the contributions of the private sector and highlighted the government’s proactive measures to promote investment in the health sector.
CM Yogi also pointed out the significance of Sharda University as an important institution for both education and healthcare, noting that health tourism is a burgeoning industry with Gautam Buddha Nagar at its forefront, positioning the state as a focal point on the global map.
The Chief Minister noted that while India had only six AIIMS facilities established over a span of 70 years, that number has jumped to 22 in just the past decade under Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s leadership. In Uttar Pradesh, the number of medical colleges has increased from 12 in 2017 to 40 within the last eight years, along with the establishment of 37 private medical colleges across various districts such as Maharajganj, Sambhal, and Shamli, as well as three additional institutions through public-private partnerships.
There are current allocations in the budget for the construction of medical colleges in Ballia and Balrampur, with plans for further institutions in six additional districts in the near future.
The Chief Minister underscored the advancement of healthcare infrastructure in rural areas, noting that Uttar Pradesh now boasts two AIIMS in Gorakhpur and Rae Bareli, in addition to the Institute of Medical Sciences (IMS) at BHU.
Every district now offers free dialysis, CT scans, and MRI services, and efforts are being made to ensure that qualified doctors and technical staff are available in rural regions. A weekly “Mukhyamantri Arogya Mela” is organized at primary health centers to inform the public about various health schemes. CM Yogi also mentioned that Uttar Pradesh has issued Ayushman Bharat Golden Cards to 10 crore people—the highest number in the country—and that health insurance of ₹5 lakh will be provided to Asha workers, ANMs, Home Guards, PRD jawans, and chowkidars. Numerous initiatives have also been launched to promote traditional medicine.
Finally, the Chief Minister characterized health tourism as a vital sector, expressing confidence that India has the potential to emerge as a world leader in this domain, with Gautam Buddha Nagar poised to become a significant hub for health tourism. Reflecting on the challenges faced during the COVID-19 pandemic, he noted that many sought treatment in Meerut, Ghaziabad, Bulandshahr, and Shamli during the chaos in Delhi, highlighting the Sharda Group’s crucial role in providing care at that time. He expressed strong optimism that Sharda Care-Health City will significantly enhance healthcare services for the community.
