They can navigate the most challenging complexities with remarkable skill. Our Government is fully committed to improving healthcare infrastructure in India and ensuring that doctors receive the widespread respect they deserve.”
Union Minister for Health and Family Welfare JP Nadda said doctors continue to inspire people with their expertise and humanitarian spirit and called them saviours.
“My warmest greetings to all doctors on National Doctors’ Day. It will not be wrong to say that doctors are truly an incarnation of God. On countless occasions, doctors have emerged as life-savers. The world has witnessed the calibre and excellence of Indian doctors and healthcare professionals during the COVID-19 pandemic. I extend my best wishes to all doctors, who continue to inspire us with their expertise and humanitarian spirit.”
The tradition of National Doctors’ Day in India began on this day in 1991 in honour of Dr. Bidhan Chandra Roy, a distinguished physician and the second Chief Minister of West Bengal.
