AIIMS Patna Director Outlines Vision for a Healthier Bihar in "Bihar Bihan" Interview

PATNA, BIHAR - Prof. (Brig.) Dr. Raju Agrawal, Executive Director of AIIMS Patna, has issued a vital call to action for public health, emphasizing a strategic shift from curative "sick care" to proactive "preventive care." Addressing the state's unique health landscape, Dr. Agrawal highlighted that while Bihar battles traditional challenges like malnutrition and seasonal floods, it now faces a surge in lifestyle-related non-communicable diseases.

Dr. Agrawal identifies a "double burden" where over 60% of mortality is now driven by heart disease, diabetes, and cancer. He stresses that the solution lies in lifestyle discipline: reducing salt and sugar, daily yoga, and 20 minutes of exercise. He further advocated for "digital well-being," recommending a strict screen-free hour before sleep to protect mental health. Through initiatives like Ayushman Bharat and AIIMS Patna's community outreach, the goal is to prevent the "expenditure catastrophes" that often devastate families.

"Our genes are the bullets, but our lifestyle pulls the trigger," Dr. Agrawal concluded, urging the youth to invest in their "health span" today to ensure a vibrant and resilient future for Bihar.
