Labour and Employment Minister Dr Mansukh Mandaviya has emphasized the importance of preventive and promotive healthcare in building a healthy and fit India. Citing the wisdom of ancient Indian medical pioneers like Charak, Sushruta, and Lord Dhanwantari, he highlighted the country’s rich healthcare legacy. Dr Mandaviya said this while addressing a seminar on Health Challenges and Healthy Lifestyles in Faridabad, Haryana. The Minister also stressed the significance of meditation, yoga, and fasting as key components of preventive healthcare. During the event, the Minister inaugurated three state-of-the-art medical facilities at ESIC Medical College and Hospital, Faridabad. These include a high-resolution, digital detector-based mammography machine designed for advanced imaging, particularly beneficial for the early detection and evaluation of breast cancer. The addition of these facilities will significantly improve diagnostic and treatment services for insured workers and their dependents.
