Raipur, October 2026/ Chief Minister Shri Vishnu Dev Sai has said that Chhattisgarh is rapidly developing into a major medical hub in Central India. Along with the expansion of health infrastructure in the state, cutting-edge medical technology, super-specialty services, and medical education are being continuously promoted. Our goal is to ensure that every citizen of Chhattisgarh has access to quality, accessible, and affordable healthcare within their own state, and that financial constraints should not become a barrier to treatment for any needy individual.

Chief Minister Shri Sai was addressing the groundbreaking ceremony of Omega Medicine Hospital's new initiative of state-of-the-art healthcare services and cancer treatment center in the capital Raipur today. On this occasion, the Chief Minister congratulated and wished the hospital management and the entire team of Omega Group, saying that the expansion of modern facilities for the treatment of serious diseases like cancer will further strengthen the state's healthcare services.

Chief Minister Shri Sai said that the entire family goes through a difficult time with a patient battling a serious illness like cancer. If treatment has to be transferred to another state, the financial burden on the family increases, along with many practical difficulties. Our effort is to minimize the need for the people of Chhattisgarh to travel outside the state for treatment of even the most serious illnesses, and to ensure that they receive world-class medical facilities while living with their families.

He said that the proposed oncology center at Omega Hospital would be an important initiative in this direction. The availability of expert physicians and modern medical technology would provide better cancer treatment facilities not only to patients in Chhattisgarh but also to patients from neighboring states.

Health infrastructure is being strengthened to build a healthy Chhattisgarh.

Chief Minister Shri Sai said that under the leadership and guidance of Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi, the state government is working tirelessly to build a healthy Chhattisgarh. Instead of limiting health services to major cities, special emphasis is being placed on providing quality medical care to villages, the poor, and remote tribal areas.

He said that health infrastructure is being strengthened, from primary and community health centers to district hospitals and medical colleges. ICUs, dialysis units, modern pathology, and other essential medical facilities are being expanded in district hospitals so that patients do not have to travel unnecessarily to larger cities for routine checkups and treatment.

The Chief Minister said that the government's effort is to decentralize health services, reduce the gap in medical facilities between rural and urban areas, and ensure access to quality health services to the last person.

The government is becoming a support for families in serious illness

Chief Minister Shri Sai said that serious illness is not only a health challenge, but often creates a significant financial crisis for families. The Ayushman Bharat scheme, launched by Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi, has relieved millions of such families of the worry of medical treatment. Along with government hospitals, a large number of private hospitals have also been linked to the scheme, providing eligible families with free treatment under the prescribed provisions.
