Efforts to improve healthcare accessibility in India's Northeast gained momentum as Indian Oil Corporation Limited, collaborating with Fairfax India Charitable Foundation and the government of Arunachal Pradesh, delivered 10 haemodialysis machines. This initiative, part of the Pradhan Mantra National Dialysis Programme, focuses on decentralizing haemodialysis services.

The trilateral agreement was solidified with National Health Mission mission director Marge Sora, representing Arunachal Pradesh, as well as Indian Oil and Fairfax India's representatives. This partnership underlines the role of public-private collaboration in addressing healthcare disparities across the region, noted Udit Jain from Indian Oil.

Rajesh Nambiar of Indian Oil stressed the significance of bridging healthcare gaps in remote areas. Meanwhile, Fairfax India Charitable Foundation's Vishal Suri expressed gratitude towards Indian Oil for their vital contribution, enabling much-needed dialysis services in Arunachal Pradesh's communities. This project is poised to lower mortality rates and create jobs in healthcare.
