Following the event, Chief Minister Gupta also shared her thoughts on X. She mentioned that discussions were held at the ASHA Conference 2026 to further enhance Delhi’s healthcare services.

Gupta noted, “The incentive for ASHA workers has been raised to ₹6,000, which will provide financial support to 6,690 ASHA workers and strengthen health services delivered door-to-door.”

The Chief Minister highlighted the launch of the SOTTO at GB Pant Hospital, which aims to improve coordination in the organ donation and transplantation process, ensuring timely assistance for patients in need.

Furthermore, the Auxillary Nurse Midwife Online (ANMOL) scheme has been expanded, offering free screenings for 56 types of health issues in newborns, facilitating early detection and treatment of diseases.

She also announced the launch of a Nursing Home Management System portal, designed to simplify and enhance transparency in nursing home operations.
