Its demands for grants
2 budget lines sit under this ministry. The total above is their sum, because a group carries no figure of its own anywhere in this dataset.
- Department of Health and Family Welfare AIIMS hospitals, the National Health Mission, Ayushman Bharat insurance, and CGHS treatment for retired officials. ₹93,000 cr
- Department of Health Research The Indian Council of Medical Research and its laboratories, and the Ayushman Bharat health research infrastructure. ₹4,000 cr
The ministry structure here is the one the 2026-27 Budget publishes, applied to every year so a demand keeps one place across time. A machinery-of-government change that moved a demand between ministries in an earlier year is therefore not reflected.
