Addressing residents and Health Department officials, the Minister said the Delhi Government is committed to bringing free primary healthcare services closer to people’s homes.

The newly inaugurated facility will offer a comprehensive range of primary healthcare services, including doctor consultations, essential medicines, diagnostic tests, maternal and child healthcare, immunisation, routine health check-ups and other essential medical services under one roof. The Minister noted that the centre would improve early access to treatment while easing the patient load on major hospitals.
Ravinder Indraj Singh said the Delhi Government, under the guidance of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the leadership of Chief Minister Rekha Gupta, is focused on strengthening the Capital’s healthcare infrastructure and ensuring that quality medical services are accessible, effective and citizen-centric across all neighbourhoods.
Local residents welcomed the inauguration and thanked the Minister for fulfilling a long-pending demand for improved healthcare facilities in Punjab Khore. They expressed confidence that the Ayushman Arogya Mandir would benefit thousands of people by delivering timely and quality primary healthcare within the community.
Concluding the programme, the Minister congratulated the Health Department, doctors, officers and staff for their commitment to expanding healthcare services and strengthening Delhi’s public health system.
