Last year, PM Modi dedicated the Ayushman Bharat scheme to the Antyodaya philosophy of Upadhyay.
Calling him one of the greatest thinkers of the last century, PM Modi had said that Upadhyay’s economic philosophy, the policies aimed at empowering society, and the shown path of Antyodaya are still relevant and inspirational.

Addressing the 81st episode of his monthly radio programme ‘Mann Ki Baat’ on September 26, 2021, the Prime Minister also recalled the implementation of the Ayushman Bharat Scheme, which is the world’s largest health insurance scheme.
