Ayushman Arogya Shivir concludes across three Kartavya Bhawans in New Delhi (22–24 July 2026)

What happened (22–24 July 2026) across Kartavya Bhawans

The Ministry of Health and Family Welfare organised a three-day Ayushman Arogya Shivir from 22 to 24 July 2026 across Kartavya Bhawan-I, Kartavya Bhawan-II, and Kartavya Bhawan-III in New Delhi. The initiative was organised by the Central TB Division (CTD) in collaboration with the Delhi State TB Cell, the National TB Elimination Programme (NTEP), and the Swasth Nagrik Abhiyaan (SNA) Division of the same ministry, with a focus on preventive healthcare, early diagnosis, and healthy-living awareness among government officials and central secretariat staff working in the Kartavya Bhawans.

Camp delivery and screening services

Ayushman Arogya Shivir began at Kartavya Bhawan-I on 22 July 2026 and concluded at Kartavya Bhawan-III on 24 July 2026, with each day mapped to a specific Kartavya Bhawan campus. The camp provided free health screening and medical consultation, supported by comprehensive assessments including blood pressure measurement, blood sugar testing, Body Mass Index (BMI) assessment, haemoglobin (Hb) estimation, chest X-ray screening, medical consultation, and referral services whenever required. Participation included officers, security personnel, housekeeping staff, sanitation workers, and other employees.

TB-specific diagnostic support through Ni-kshay Vahans

A key feature of the shivir was the deployment of two Ni-kshay Vahans equipped with digital chest X-ray, CBNAAT (Cartridge-Based Nucleic Acid Amplification Test), and TrueNat diagnostic facilities. These mobile units enabled on-site TB screening, molecular testing, and prompt referral of suspected cases, strengthening early detection and timely treatment pathways under the National TB Elimination Programme (NTEP).
