PM Modi’s Pro-People Decision Will Benefit Millions, Says Chief Minister Sai
Raipur, August 4, 2025/ Chief Minister Shri Vishnu Deo Sai welcomed the Central Government’s decision to reduce the prices of 37 essential medicines by 10 to 15 percent, and expressed his heartfelt gratitude to Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi for this significant step.
CM Sai stated that “A Healthy India is the foundation of a Developed India.” He described this decision as a clear reflection of the Prime Minister’s visionary and people-centric leadership. He added that the move will bring considerable relief to citizens suffering from common yet serious ailments such as heart disease, diabetes, infections, fever, and pain.
He further noted that life-saving medicines like Paracetamol, Atorvastatin, and Amoxicillin will now become more accessible and affordable. In a tribal and rural-dominated state like Chhattisgarh, this decision will prove to be immensely beneficial for the health of the poor, labourers, farmers, women, and the elderly, he said.
CM Sai also mentioned that the Chhattisgarh Government is consistently working towards expanding the reach of the Pradhan Mantri Jan Aushadhi Kendras, ensuring the effective implementation of the Ayushman Bharat scheme, and improving the availability of quality healthcare services across the state.
Chief Minister Shri Sai concluded by saying that this decision by the Central Government is not merely a reduction in medicine prices, but a concrete step towards empowering the lives of common citizens.
