Cashless Medical Treatment: Big decision by state government. Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has made a significant announcement for journalists. During an event in Gorakhpur on Monday, CM Yogi stated that the state government is working on providing cashless healthcare to accredited journalists. This initiative is designed to enhance security and convenience for journalists, allowing them to perform their duties without concern.
Journalists will benefit from identity and security.
CM Yogi mentioned that genuine and responsible journalists will receive accreditation certificates and ID cards. This will clarify their identity and ensure they encounter no issues while working anywhere. Additionally, it will facilitate the government’s connection of these journalists with health services.
Preparation for cashless healthcare
The Chief Minister elaborated that journalists often advocate for society, but when they face challenges, particularly during health crises, few individuals step up to assist. To address this issue, the government aims to offer them cashless treatment. In Gorakhpur, a system for this has been set up through the Press Club.
Plan to unite all types of journalists
CM Yogi expressed that journalists linked with major media outlets receive certain benefits, yet a significant portion of the population remains underserved. The government is working to unite all journalists on a single platform and develop a better system to ensure everyone can access equal advantages.
Hindi journalism marks 200 years
The Chief Minister also highlighted that this year is significant for Hindi journalism. The first Hindi newspaper, “Udant Martand,” was launched on May 30, 1826. Since then, journalism has played a crucial role in fortifying democracy.
