Hospital Upgrade: Gelephu’s Central Regional Referral Hospital is set for a major renovation as assessments flag cracked walls, water leaks, blocked drainage, ageing plumbing/electrical systems, and safety concerns—part of Gelephu Mindfulness City’s growth and a push for safer care. Maternal & Child Health: India–Bhutan ties also show up in health infrastructure: a 65-bed Gyaltsuen Jetsun Pema Mother and Child Hospital in Mongar was inaugurated, aiming to strengthen specialised maternal and child care in eastern Bhutan. Breast Care Milestone: Thimphu’s dedicated Breast Clinic marked its first anniversary with 1,600+ visits, 45+ breast cancer surgeries, and a focus on earlier detection—though radiotherapy still requires some patients to travel abroad. Clean Cooking Pilot: In Chhumey Gewog, about 100 remote households received subsidised electric stoves to cut firewood use and reduce indoor air pollution and pressure on forests. Rabies Prevention: Bhutan will maintain surveillance, vaccination, and cross-border coordination to prevent rabies reintroduction after WHO validation of elimination as a public health problem. India-Bhutan Health Diplomacy: During a Thimphu visit, India’s EAM S Jaishankar thanked Bhutan’s Finance Minister and handed over 43 Jersey cows to support dairy productivity—an indirect boost to nutrition and livelihoods.
