Vedanta Aluminium is providing healthcare support to women and families in remote areas through the Government of India’s Swasth Nari Sashakt Parivar Abhiyaan.
Launched by Hon’ble Prime Minister Narendra Modi, this initiative represents the nation’s largest health outreach program for women and children, jointly led by the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare and the Ministry of Women and Child Development. From September 17 to October 2, 2025, more than 1 million health camps will be conducted across Ayushman Arogya Mandirs, Community Health Centres (CHCs), Primary Health Centres (PHCs), District Hospitals, and other government facilities.
As part of this campaign, Vedanta Aluminium organised health camps at the PHC in Nakrundi, Kalahandi, and the CHC in Kashipur, Rayagada, deploying Mobile Health Units (MHUs) with medical staff, diagnostics, and essential medicines. These camps benefited 468 women and more than 410 men and children. Building on this outreach, the company plans to support upcoming camps at Rampur and Sunger.
Rajiv Kumar, CEO of Vedanta Aluminium, commented on the initiative: “Healthy women are the cornerstone of healthy families and empowered communities. At Vedanta Aluminium, we are committed to making healthcare more accessible to women, especially in remote regions. Through our support for the government’s Swasth Nari Sashakt Parivar Abhiyaan, we aim to bring quality medical care closer to the women and children who need it most. This effort is part of our broader community development initiatives.”
Dr. Netra Nanda Nayak, Head of the Community Health Centre in Kashipur and involved in the program, added, “The additional support from Vedanta Aluminium has enabled us to reach more women with timely diagnosis and treatment. This collaboration is making a real difference in the health and confidence of women in rural communities.”
