Arogya Rath: Keep Healthcare Within Reach

A Community-Based Healthcare Movement

A fever should not cost a family its land. Across the tribal villages of Jhabua and Alirajpur, healthcare is far away, so families delay treatment until a minor illness becomes an emergency, then borrow, mortgage land or sell jewellery to pay for it.

Arogya Rath is a mobile healthcare unit that brings doctors to the village through telemedicine. Trained paramedical staff run basic tests, connect patients live with qualified doctors and provide medicines. Patients needing advanced care are guided by Shivganga’s Patient Assistance Centre to treatment under schemes like Ayushman Bharat. The aim: a child treated before illness worsens, and no family losing its future to medical debt.

Our Goal this year

Run three Arogya Rath units that give timely primary care to 25,920 patients a year.

₹290 gives one patient diagnosis, a doctor’s consultation, medicines and follow-up care.

  1. Annadaan: Nourish a Movement. Build a Nation.
    For over 25 years, Shivganga has nurtured a community-led movement across 1,320 tribal villages of Jhabua and Alirajpur. Through residential trainings at Shivganga Gurukul, youth, women and farmers learn to restore water, regenerate forests, improve health and build self-reliant villages. Behind every transformation is a simple need: a wholesome meal. Every day, hundreds of participants come to the Gurukul to learn, serve and prepare to lead change at home. In Indian tradition, Annadaan is the highest form of giving, because it nourishes body and spirit. Every participant fed today returns home as a changemaker tomorrow.

  2. Arogya Van: Support a Mother Grow a Healthier Family.
    When women in the tribal villages of Jhabua and Alirajpur discussed their families’ greatest challenge, illness stood out—and poor nutrition was a leading cause. So they chose to become the solution. In 2019, Shivganga launched Arogya Van, inspiring every family to nurture 15 fruit-bearing and medicinal plants around their home for nutrition, natural healthcare, and a greener future. 17,000 families have established their own Arogya Vans. 2,19,000+ plants have been nurtured. Each year, women leaders from Shivganga’s Village Leadership Journey mobilise families across their villages. Each family contributes ₹100 as a symbol of ownership, and Shivganga provides 15 plants.
