Tripura Chief Minister Professor Dr. Manik Saha launched the Chief Minister Jan Arogya Yojana (CM-JAY), a health insurance scheme that aims to provide coverage of Rs5 lakh per year to 4.15 lakh families in the state. With this launch, Tripura became the first Northeastern state to launch a universal health cover. The CM-JAY was formally inaugurated at Netaji Subhash Vidyaniketan in Agartala, where the Chief Minister handed over the first batch of health cards to the beneficiaries.


      The CM-JAY is modeled on the Ayushman Bharat-Prime Minister Jan Arogya Yojana (AB-PMJAY), which was launched in the state along with other states of the country on September 23, 2018.

      The AB-PMJAY covers about 5.12 lakh families out of 9.75 lakh families in the state.

      So far, more than 2.94 lakh beneficiaries have received medical services under the AB-PMJAY in the state.
