President Murmu Stresses Compassionate Care at AIIMS Deoghar Ahead of Dhanbad Convocation

Her tour spotlighted drone-based anti-venom delivery for tribal communities — a demonstration of AIIMS Deoghar’s mission — backed by a 32-hour no-fly zone for Friday’s IIT-ISM Dhanbad ceremony.

Overview

  • At AIIMS Deoghar’s maiden convocation, Murmu urged new doctors to combine rigorous clinical skills with empathy, calling compassionate behaviour integral to patient care.
  • She highlighted AIIMS Deoghar’s designation as a Centre of Competence for tribal health and praised its pioneering use of drones to deliver anti-venom to remote areas.
  • Authorities imposed a 32-hour no-fly zone over the Dhanbad airstrip and enforced revised traffic restrictions to secure the president’s upcoming visit to IIT-ISM Dhanbad.
  • Murmu’s deep personal connection to Jharkhand—dating to her time as governor when she oversaw AIIMS Deoghar’s foundation in 2018—frames her push for inclusive healthcare expansion.
  • As she prepares to preside over IIT-ISM Dhanbad’s 45th convocation, the president plans to urge young engineers to leverage technology for building a just and sustainable India.
