A national campaign built on care and Compassion.
India carries a quarter of the world’s tuberculosis burden. The National Tuberculosis Elimination Programme, led by the Central TB Division, is the country’s people-first response — scaled into a permanent abhiyaan across every district, block and gram panchayat.
The approach is simple and humane: actively find hidden cases, put patients on free treatment the same day, protect their nutrition and livelihood, and surround each person with a community that helps them finish the cure.
Find
Screen the vulnerable early
Treat
Free, same-day, uninterrupted care
Prevent
Protect contacts & families
Build
A stigma-free community
Ten signs worth two minutes of your attention.
TB spreads through the air but is entirely curable. Recognising it early protects you and everyone around you. If any of these last more than a fortnight, get tested — free of cost.
