India Prepares for World TB Day 2026 with National Event
The Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, under the leadership of Union Health Minister Shri Jagat Prakash Nadda, is set to observe World TB Day 2026 with a national event to be held on March 24 at Gautam Buddha University, Greater Noida. This event is a testament to India's strong resolve to eradicate Tuberculosis, aligning with Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi's vision of a TB-Mukt Bharat. Key initiatives such as the 'TB Mukt Bharat Abhiyaan – 100 Days Campaign,' the TB Mukt Bharat App, and the TB Mukt Urban Ward Initiative will be launched to drive these efforts, focusing on accelerated case detection and treatment adherence. The theme for this year's World TB Day, "Yes! We Can End TB!", embodies the collective commitment to end TB in India.
