NEW DELHI: Arvind Kejriwal, national convenor of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), has pledged to provide free medical treatment to all senior citizens above 60 years of age in Delhi, under the newly announced ‘Sanjivani Yojana’.
The scheme, which will be implemented once AAP forms the government, aims to offer free treatment in both government and private hospitals, with all costs borne by the Delhi government.
Addressing a gathering, Kejriwal stated, “Delhi’s son takes full responsibility for the health care of the elderly,” and emphasised that there would be no income or socio-economic restrictions on this initiative.
“Whether you wish to get treated in a government hospital or a private hospital, the entire cost of your treatment will be covered by the Delhi government,” he assured.
The ‘Sanjivani Yojana’ builds on the success of the ‘Mukhyamantri Teerth Yatra Yojana’, which has already facilitated pilgrimages for over 1 lakh senior citizens across the country.
