The Congress party has promised free health insurance of up to Rs 25 lakh under ‘Jeevan Raksha Yojana’ if voted to power in Delhi.

As per PTI report, Senior Congress leader and former Rajasthan chief minister Ashok Gehlot said the proposed scheme would be a game-changer as it will provide comprehensive health coverage to families, covering medical expenses for critical illnesses, hospitalisations, and treatments.

“The chances of the Congress forming the government in Delhi are increasing. I believe this is also necessary for the country,” he said at the unveiling event.

Gehlot also highlighted that the proposed scheme reflected the party’s commitment to addressing Delhi residents’ healthcare needs.

The party’s campaign slogan “Hogi Har Zarurat Puri, Congress Hai Zaroori” was prominently displayed during the announcement, highlighting the Congress’s “promise” of ensuring essential services for all.

“Congress is the party which has kept this country united till date. We believe that the Congress takes along all the castes and religions,” he stated.

This health scheme was very successful in Rajasthan and it will be successful in Delhi also. This is a universal scheme which will be for all the people of Delhi. All government and private hospitals will be included in Jeevan Raksha Yojana, in which every Delhi resident will get free health, he said.

“I believe that you can win elections by polarisation, but cannot run the country or develop it. Bringing back Congress in Delhi is very important. Sheila Dikshit gave excellent governance and the modern Delhi. We would like to bring that era back in the national capital,” Gehlot said.
