Padmashree Awardee and founder of Shaheed Bhagat Singh Sewa Dal Jitender Singh Shunty Announces Free Dialysis Services Through Mobile Vans at doorstep in Delhi
Delhi, January 1, 2025 – Jitender Singh Shunty, also known as Ambulance man & founder of Shaheed Bhagat Singh Sewa Dal, today made a groundbreaking announcement that will benefit thousands of dialysis patients across Delhi. In an effort to improve access to critical healthcare, Shunty Ji revealed plans to introduce a fleet of mobile dialysis vans, offering free dialysis services to those in need.
The initiative, which aims to bridge the healthcare accessibility gap for patients who struggle to reach hospitals or dialysis centres, is set to transform the way dialysis is administered in the capital. The mobile dialysis units will provide essential treatment to patients who require regular dialysis, particularly those living in remote or underserved areas of the city.
Key Features of the Free Mobile Dialysis Service:
• Free Dialysis: The mobile vans will provide completely free dialysis services to patients,
ensuring no one is left behind due to financial constraints.
• Accessibility: Equipped with state-of-the-art medical equipment, the mobile vans will travel
to various localities, providing easy access to life-saving treatment for dialysis patients.
• Increased Reach: The initiative will primarily target areas where healthcare facilities are
scarce, improving healthcare equity in Delhi.
• Highly Qualified Staff: Each mobile unit will be staffed by experienced medical professionals
who will ensure high-quality treatment is delivered to patients.
“Dialysis is a critical treatment for many, but access remains a challenge for a large section of our population. By providing free dialysis services through mobile vans, we aim to eliminate this barrier and ensure that every citizen in Delhi receives the care they need, regardless of their financial situation,” said Jitender Singh Shunty.
Shunty Ji emphasized that this initiative is part of the party's broader vision to make healthcare
services more accessible and affordable for all citizens of Delhi. Shunty Ji further assured that the mobile dialysis service would be operational in the coming months and would be expanded as
needed to cater to more areas in the city.
The introduction of this service is expected to have a significant impact on the lives of thousands of
Delhi residents who depend on dialysis. It will not only provide much-needed relief but also reduce
the burden on overworked hospital facilities.
