Officials told to prepare extensive healthcare plan for Godavari Pushkarams 2027

The Health Minister of India, Satya Kumar Yadav, chaired a review meeting with officials to discuss the preparation of an extensive healthcare plan for the Godavari Pushkarams 2027 festival, which is expected to attract over 8 to 10 crore devotees. The event, scheduled from June 26 to July 7, requires significant infrastructure development, including 525 bathing ghats across several districts. Officials estimated initial costs of ₹93 crore for civil works, but the minister urged cost reduction and focused planning. The proposal includes 1,110 medical camps, 950 first-aid posts, 300 health posts, and 30 temporary field hospitals. A comprehensive medical logistics plan involves deploying over 500 vehicles, including ambulances and specialized units, along with a multi-level referral system and a dedicated green ambulance corridor. The ministry also plans repairs and upgrades at 23 hospitals, targeting completion of all preparations by April 30, 2027. The minister emphasized monitoring of water quality, food safety, and disease prevention.
