Hyderabad, Telangana, 1st of February, 2025 : Dr. Krishna Prasad Vunnam, Chairman and Managing Director of Ankura Hospitals, commends the Union Budget 2025-26 for its comprehensive approach to healthcare and nutrition. According to him, “The significant allocation of ₹98,311 crore for healthcare, reflects the government’s commitment to strengthening healthcare infrastructure across the country.

The expansion of medical education, increased funding for the AYUSH Ministry, and the provision of tax exemptions on lifesaving drugs will significantly enhance healthcare accessibility. The proposal to establish daycare cancer centres in district hospitals and improve broadband connectivity in rural healthcare centres will further bridge the gap in healthcare services across the nation. Furthermore, the emphasis on medical tourism will position India as a global healthcare hub, attracting international patients and boosting the sector. Additionally, the focus on nutrition through programs like Saksham Anganwadi and Poshan 2.0 will address the nutritional needs of underserved populations, contributing to a healthier future.

We, at Ankura Hospitals believes these forward-thinking initiatives will drive transformative change, improve healthcare accessibility, and foster long-term health and prosperity for the nation.”
