A new 200-bed rest shelter named “Vishwas” has been inaugurated within the Prayagraj Railway Hospital campus, offering attendants of patients a safe, clean and fully free space to stay. Equipped with meals, lockers, Wi-Fi, medical alerts and accessible facilities, the shelter aims to ensure that no caretaker is forced to sleep on platforms or outside hospital gates again. The initiative is expected to ease hospital crowding and provide dignity and relief to families during medical emergencies.

In a compassionate initiative by the Chhattisgarh Labour Welfare Board, a financial aid of ₹3 lakh was granted to Prakash Tandon, a worker suffering from silicosis. The aid was delivered personally by Board Chairman Yogeshdutt Mishra at a village-level event in Bithiya, emphasizing the board's commitment to the health and welfare of laborers across the state. The move is part of the board's broader effort to reach vulnerable workers through its 14 welfare schemes.
