Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has given a support of Rs 10 lakh to a research scholar of IIT suffering from blood cancer.
Yogi Adityanath also directed the Sanjay Gandhi Post-graduate Institute of Medical Sciences to provide best treatment to the scholar and help him in every possible way.
The chief minister got information about the scholar’s disease and condition from social media.
As per reports, IIT research scholar Ashish Dixit is suffering from blood cancer.
While taking the humanitarian initiative, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath made a concession to the rules to help Ashish Dixit. As the research scholar’s father is in government service and he himself is getting scholarship, there was hindrance in getting government help.
On getting information about the scholar’s illness from social media, Yogi Adityanath himself contacted the family and gave them financial help.
Meanwhile, Yogi Adityanath will hold a meeting with industrialists and investors on September 21 through video conferencing to listen to their problems.
MSME Minister Siddharth Nath Singh, Chief Secretary RK Tiwari along with all district magistrates and deputy commissioner of District Industries Centre will also join the meeting. The role of Udyog Bandhu in the industrial development of the state will also be discussed.
