Rajkot man’s daughter saved by PMJAY, writes letter to thank PM, gets a reply

Rajkot: A specially-abled man from Rajkot, Vipul Pitroda, received a heartwarming surprise after his daughter’s life was saved under the Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (PM-JAY). The scheme covered the full cost of her treatment. Grateful for the support, Vipul wrote a letter to thank Prime Minister Narendra Modi—and to his surprise, he received a reply from the PM himself, assuring him that “no one stands alone in India.”

Sharing his experience in a video, Vipul said, “I am differently abled due to polio, but I’ve never lost hope. I have the responsibility of my wife, two children, and my parents. Unfortunately, my daughter was diagnosed with a serious illness—her abdomen began to swell, and doctors detected a six-inch-long tumor. I had no money for her treatment, but a friend told me about PM-JAY.”

“PM-JAY relieved me of all my financial burdens, and my daughter received the best care, lifting a huge weight off my shoulders. I thanked the nurses, staff, and doctors, but I couldn’t thank Modi Ji personally—so I wrote him a letter, expressing my gratitude for saving not only my daughter’s life but also giving me a new lease on life.”

“When I wrote the letter, I never imagined I’d get a reply. Out of 140 crore people in this country, Modi Saheb responded to me.”

“It feels great to know that he cares even for common people, ensuring their well-being. No matter the situation, when Modi Ji is with us, the entire nation stands with us. I truly feel grateful and thank him for launching such a scheme, because of which my daughter’s surgery was successful and she got a new life.” DeshGujarat
