West Bengal Renames Day as ‘Ayushman Diwas’

Published on 15 Jul 2026

West Bengal will observe 16 August as ‘Ayushman Diwas’ instead of ‘Khela Hobe Diwas’, announced by CM Suvendu Adhikari.
The change promotes awareness about Ayushman Bharat Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (AB-PMJAY), focusing on health insurance for vulnerable families.
It coincides with the completion of 100 days of the newly elected BJP-led government in the state.
Awareness campaigns, outreach programmes, and events will be organised to educate citizens on eligibility, benefits, and cashless treatment under the scheme.
