Raipur, 25 October 2026

Taking essential healthcare to remote tribal communities, the PM-JANMAN Mobile Medical Unit (MMU) programme in Chhattisgarh has reached 125,051 Particularly Vulnerable Tribal Group (PVTG) beneficiaries through 57 Mobile Medical Units operating across 18 districts.

Since its launch on December 31, 2025, the programme has conducted 15,209 medical camps, recorded 245,095 patient registrations and 332,526 consultations, and delivered 294,560 diagnostic investigations. The programme has also recorded 128,596 follow-up patient records and 3,671 hospital referrals.

The mobile units bring healthcare services directly to villages and remote hamlets, providing medical consultations, laboratory investigations, screening, medicines and referral support. Each unit is supported by a doctor, nurse, laboratory technician and driver, enabling communities to access essential healthcare closer to home.

The programme’s outreach also includes 254,912 point-of-care tests for non-communicable diseases and 217,889 blood tests, supporting early identification of health conditions and timely medical intervention.

Implemented with operational support from Dhanush Healthcare Systems Private Limited, the initiative demonstrates the importance of mobile healthcare delivery in reaching vulnerable tribal populations and improving access to essential medical services in geographically challenging areas.

Through continued outreach, the programme aims to strengthen last-mile healthcare access and ensure that remote and underserved PVTG communities receive essential medical attention, diagnostic services and follow-up care.
