UP CM Yogi Adityanath Announces Cashless Healthcare For Accredited Journalists

Lucknow: Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has made an important announcement for journalists, stating that the state government is working towards providing cashless healthcare to accredited journalists. This initiative aims to provide journalists with better security and convenience, so they can carry out their work without worry. 

Will journalists get benefit of identity and security?

During an event held in Gorakhpur on Monday, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath said that the genuine and responsible journalists will be given accreditation certificates and ID cards. This will ensure their identity is clear and they will have no problems working anywhere. Furthermore, it will also be easier for the government to connect such journalists with health facilities.

What are the preparation for cashless healthcare?

The Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister explained that journalists often speak out for society, but when they themselves face difficulties, especially during illness, few people come forward to help. To change this situation, the government wants to provide them with cashless treatment. 

In Gorakhpur, a system for this has been established through the Press Club.

What is the plan to connect all types of journalists?

CM Yogi Adityanath said that journalists associated with major media organizations receive facilities, but there is a large segment of the population that remains deprived. The government is striving to bring all journalists together on one platform and create a better system so that everyone can receive equal benefits.

Did Hindi journalism complete 200 years?

The Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister also said that this year is special for Hindi journalism. The first Hindi newspaper, 'Udant Martand," was launched on May 30, 1826. From then until today, journalism has played a vital role in strengthening democracy.
