Hey there, folks! Exciting news coming out of Aundh today! Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar has announced a groundbreaking initiative to combat rising cancer rates among girls and women in the state. During the launch of a special health check-up campaign at Indira Gandhi School, Pawar revealed plans to administer a cancer vaccine to females across Maharashtra.
Pawar made it clear that the entire state cabinet is fully dedicated to this initiative, with a focus on providing comprehensive medical examinations for all children in Maharashtra. The goal is to detect and treat physical and mental illnesses at an early stage, ensuring the well-being of our youngest citizens.
Minister for Public Health and Family Welfare, Prakash Abitkar, shared details of the 100-day special program, which will see approximately two crore children undergo health check-ups. The Health Department is also working on expanding health services by opening primary health centers and hospitals in rural areas.
School Education Minister Dada Bhuse emphasized the importance of ensuring timely treatment for students, proposing the creation of a dedicated cell for this purpose. In a light-hearted moment, Abitkar even jokingly administered a “dose of glucose” to Pawar, underscoring the expectations placed on him to lead this initiative effectively and transparently.
The event was attended by various officials, including Pune Municipal Commissioner Dr. Rajendra Bhosale and Pune District Collector Jitendra Dudi. Stay tuned for more updates on this crucial health initiative in Maharashtra!
