New Delhi, May 13 (PTI) Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday chaired a meeting to review progress of the tuberculosis elimination campaign.

Under the National Tuberculosis Elimination Programme (NTEP), India has strengthened its TB response with advanced diagnostics, innovative policies, private sector partnerships, and a patient-first approach.

Key drivers include record-high case reporting, better diagnostics, financial support for patients, and strong multi-sector collaboration. PTI SKU SKU SZM SZM
