The Government has approved the extension of the Ex-Servicemen Contributory Health Scheme (ECHS) to officer cadets invalidated from training on medical grounds due to military training. This initiative aims to provide quality medical care to cadets suffering lifelong disabilities, who previously were not eligible for ECHS. The scheme includes free OPD services, cashless healthcare, and waives the subscription fee for these cadets. The decision addresses the financial and emotional burden on their families, ensuring they receive necessary medical support.
