Prime Minister Narendra Modi is set to visit Madhya Pradesh today to inaugurate and launch several key initiatives spanning health, nutrition, tribal welfare, and industry. The visit coincides with PM's 75th birthday.
He will launch the 'Swasth Nari Sashakt Parivar' and the '8th Rashtriya Poshan Maah' campaigns at Dhar around 12 pm.

They will also conduct blood donation drives, enroll beneficiaries under PM-JAY, and provide Ayush services, including yoga sessions. Donors will be registered on the e-Raktkosh portal.
PM Modi will reportedly transfer funds under the Pradhan Mantri Matru Vandana Yojana directly into the bank accounts of nearly 10 lakh women.
The campaigns aim to provide women-centric preventive, promotive, and curative healthcare. It will focus on early detection and treatment of non-communicable diseases, anaemia, tuberculosis, and sickle cell disease. The Prime Minister will distribute one-crore sickle cell screening and counselling cards in Madhya Pradesh to strengthen the fight against sickle cell anaemia.
Specialist services in gynaecology, paediatrics, dermatology, psychiatry, eye, ENT, and dental care will be mobilised through medical colleges, district hospitals, and private institutions.
