    New Delhi (The Hawk): The Health Pavilion at the 41st India International Trade Fair (IITF) was opened on Monday by V.K. Paul, Member (Health), NITI Aayog.

    "Heal in India, Heal by India" serves as the subject of the Health Ministry's pavilion this year.

    The Health Pavilion highlights the Health Ministry's many programmes, projects, and accomplishments, including the recently inaugurated PM TB-Mukt Bharat Abhiyan, NACO, and AB PMJAY, among others.

    Additionally, there are several booths for educational activities, life-saving techniques, and screening for conditions including diabetes, anaemia, high blood pressure, and BMI.

    Paul spoke to the group on the occasion and emphasised the need of paying care to one's health.

    He praised the pavilion's vendors and emphasised the importance of raising people's awareness of ailments like anaemia and diabetes that are imperceptible until they are identified.

    Everyone was advised by Paul to approach the message of health as a mission.

    Additionally, he urged all parties involved to spread the word about educational initiatives through a variety of media. All parties involved are urged to use the Health Pavilion as a micro-system to start a Jan Andolan toward greater health, he said.

    The event's Special Secretary, S. Gopalakrishnan, emphasised the Digital Health programme and emphasised its worldwide application.

    He added that if people are properly informed, many health issues may be remedied, and he expressed optimism regarding important reforms and activities being made in the health system.
