Nearly 550 road traffic accident victims got emergency treatment under State’s ‘Accident Victims scheme’ in last one year

Nearly 550 road traffic accident victims got emergency treatment during the golden hour under the State government’s cashless ‘accident victims scheme’ since its launch in April last year.

To provide emergency medical treatment to road accident victims on similar lines as the erstwhile Mukhyamantri Santwana Harish Yojana (MSHY), the State government launched this scheme on April 8 last year.

Under the scheme, immediate and cashless medical support and treatment is being provided to road accident victims free of cost during the golden hour (one hour from the time of accident) up to 48 hours from the time of accident.
