The Ayushman Vay Vandana card is a new addition under the Ayushman Bharat scheme, under which senior citizens aged 70 years and above have access to free and cashless treatment up to Rs 10 lakh per year—an enhancement that includes a Rs 5 lakh top-up over the standard Ayushman Bharat coverage.

The Speaker praised the proactive implementation of the scheme and urged eligible citizens to come forward and avail the benefits of the Ayushman Vay Vandana Card, reinforcing his vision of a healthier and more secure Delhi for all.

Notably, the camp witnessed an enthusiastic response from residents wherein a large number of senior citizens were seen registering themselves and the Speaker interacted with several people during the inspection.
