Madhavbaug will provide assistance of Rs 50,000 to each doctor willing to open an OPD.

On this occasion, the Gram Sanjivani Health Scheme of Madhavbaug was launched by Gadkari, wherein he mentioned, “Currently, diseases like hypertension, heart diseases, and diabetes have become a major menace for the society and as of today, we need five lakh new doctors to fight them. While the government is trying to establish more medical colleges, other institutions and trusts need to take a lead in this work. Huge employment opportunities are available for those learning health education and Yoga.”
