Vedanta’s ‘Swarna Prashan’ drive covers 17k students

BHUBANESWAR: Vedanta Aluminium has completed the 4th phase of its ‘Swarna Prashan’ initiative extending the benefits of the Ayurveda-based immunisation drive to over 17,000 students across the state.

The leading aluminium producer that has partnered with the Ministry of Ayush to implement the initiative reached out to over 6,400 students of 15 government schools in tribal-dominated Rayagada and Kalahandi districts.

“The immunisation programme is a significant initiative in promoting Ayurvedic healthcare practices for the well-being of children. I appreciate Vedanta Aluminium’s collaboration with the government and community stakeholders to nurture a healthier future for the next generation,” Kalahandi medical officer Dr Meenakshi Bedbak said.
