Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has announced the “Chief Minister’s Cashless Medical Scheme” for teachers and their families, which was launched today, July 8, 2026, in Varanasi. Under the scheme, more than 1.2 million teachers, Shiksha Mitras, instructors, cooks, and other staff from government primary and secondary schools in the state will receive cashless treatment up to ₹5 lakh per family per year. Eligible staff from Kasturba Gandhi Balika Vidyalayas are also included in the scheme.
The “Chief Minister Teachers’ Cashless Medical Scheme” will provide teachers with the same benefits as those provided under the Ayushman Bharat Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana. Under this scheme, teachers and their families will be able to avail cashless treatment at hospitals affiliated with Ayushman Bharat across the country. This will provide financial assistance for the treatment of serious illnesses, significantly reducing their burden.
According to government information, teachers and staff from the Higher Education Department will also be included in this scheme in the future.
There are three scheme
CM Yogi said that there are three schemes: cashless medical treatment, DBT, and guaranteed social security. You didn’t ask for it, but we are concerned about your health. Uttar Pradesh was a sick state; eight years ago, people wandered to other states. This is no longer the case; people no longer face identity challenges. With the improvement of education, the state’s development accelerated. Previously, the Secondary Education Board exams used to last for three months, which was meaningless. I thank the teachers, thanks to whom, today, exams are being conducted in 15 days and results are also being announced.
The Chief Minister’s Teacher Cashless Medical Scheme was also launched in the Bulandshahr Collectorate auditorium. Under this scheme, teachers and their families will benefit from cashless medical care. Additionally, a program to distribute ₹1,200 per student to students through DBT was also launched.
