“We now provide a comprehensive range of healthcare services from preventive, promotive, curative, rehabilitative and palliative care,” Nadda said. Everything at no cost is not possible, but at Symbiosis Arogyadham, they have made it possible, which is a highly creditable thing. Institutions like Symbiosis and the government should go hand in hand to create policies in the health sector which are inclusive, Nadda added.
Dr SB Mujumdar, in his presidential address, said, “If India wants to become a Vishwaguru, then it should be backed by spirituality and the ideology of ‘vasudhaiva kutumbakam’. Nowadays, technology has made a significant contribution in connecting people across the world.”
